Ukraine turns Sea of Azov into graveyard for Russian ships, driving up global prices
Ukraine's intensified drone warfare in the Black Sea and Sea of Azov is crippling Russian maritime operations and threatening global food and fuel supplies. The article details three recent operations: a Barracuda drone attack near occupied Zaliznyi Port, a Mamai drone strike damaging the Russian shadow fleet tanker Avero near Novorossiysk, and a Sargan-3000 drone sinking the patrol vessel Emerald near Gelendzhik, close to a compound linked to Vladimir Putin. Ukrainian forces have recorded 183 strikes under Operation Molochka. The blockade is driving up wheat and fuel prices, raising fears of a new global food crisis. Analysts predict further escalation, including potential strikes on the Crimean Bridge.
