Ukraine's Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kobrakov said his country continues to resume grain exports from its Black Sea ports despite the Russian missile strike that hit the port of Odessa on Saturday.

The Ukrainian military had said that Russian missiles had hit the southern port of Odessa, threatening to collapse an important agreement signed just the day before to lift the blockade on grain exports from the Black Sea ports and ease the global food shortage crisis caused by the war.

"We are continuing technical preparations for the launch of agricultural exports from our ports," Kobrakov wrote on Facebook.
