EKO HOT BLOG reports that Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky has condemned Saturday’s strikes as “barbarism” that showed Moscow could not be trusted to implement a deal struck just one day earlier with Turkish and United Nations mediation.

Ukraine pressed ahead on Sunday with efforts to restart grain exports from Black Sea ports after a missile attack on Odesa raised doubts whether Russia would honour a deal aimed at easing global food shortages caused by the war.

It would be recalled that less than 24 hours after Russia signed a deal to unblock grain exports from Black Sea ports, explosions rocked port city of Odesa on Saturday, the Ukrainian military said.

“The enemy attacked the Odesa sea trade port with Kalibr cruise missiles,” Ukraine’s Operational Command South wrote on the Telegram messaging app.

Two missiles hit infrastructure at the port, while another two were shot down by air defense forces, it said.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said there could be no ceasefire unless lost territory was retaken. He said this after hailing the grain export agreement that Russia and Ukraine had signed on Friday.

In other news, the Health Ministry said in Lok Sabha that there are no provisions in the law to accommodate Ukraine-returned medical students for practical training.

“Therefore, no permission has been given by the NMC to transfer or accommodate any foreign medical students in any Indian medical institute or university,” union minister of state for health and family welfare Dr Bharti Pravin Pawar said.
