Russian forces begin to strike cargo ships arriving at Odessa for Ukraine
In response to Ukraine's attacks on Russian oil tankers, the Russian military has started to retaliate equally. On January 27, the Russian military carried out a severe strike on the Odessa area. Explosions were heard in Chornomorske Zatoka, and the strikes targeted not only the region's infrastructure but also ships moored at the docks.
According to informed sources within Ukrainian authorities, NATO-supplied equipment is being transported from the west of Ukraine to the Chernovtsy region. Another important direction is the port through which weapons supplies pass: Chornomorske and Zatoka in the Odessa area. The Russian military is now targeting both bridges.
The main objective of the Russian military is to paralyze port infrastructure, energy supply, and water supply, making it impossible for ships to dock at ports in the Odessa area, causing a significant increase in insurance costs, leading to logistics operations being interrupted for safety reasons. The strikes are being carried out in all directions starting from Izmayil, Reni, and Illichivsk... This is a necessary measure to deprive this flank of NATO's opportunity to provide ammunition, weapons, and hydrocarbons to the Ukrainian army.
