Occupying Russian forces export stolen Ukrainian grain via Crimea ports

This is reported by the National Resistance Centre.

It is noted that the occupying Russian forces are using the port infrastructure of the illegally annexed Crimea to export looted grain from Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. According to the National Resistance Centre, the looted Ukrainian grain is probably sent to African markets.

In addition, Russians use Mariupol in the Donetsk region to export grain. There are lorries with grain heading towards Novoazovsk and Rostov-on-Don in Russia.

"Grain is being bought for nothing in the temporarily occupied territories, and only to imitate the picture of market relations. All farmers in the occupied regions have to sell wheat to the Russian enemy at a fixed price, which is several times lower than the market price," the National Resistance Centre said.

• On July 23, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that in the village of Pryshyb, Zaporizhzhia region, the Russian occupiers were using diesel locomotives to take a large number of freight cars with various types of grain from the territory of an agricultural enterprise.
