Two people were hospitalized following a 3 1/2-hour Russian drone barrage on a port in Ukraine's Odesa region on Sunday, officials said.
The attack on the Reni seaport comes a day before Russian President Vladimir Putin is due to meet with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan to discuss the resumption of food shipments from Ukraine under a Black Sea grain agreement that Moscow broke off from in July.
Russia's Defense Ministry said in a statement that the attack was aimed at fuel storage facilities used to supply military equipment. The deal - brokered by the United Nations and Turkey in July 2022 - had allowed nearly 33 million metric tons of grain and other commodities to leave three Ukrainian ports safely despite Russia's war.
The Sochi summit follows talks between the Russian and Turkish foreign ministers on Thursday, during which Russia handed over a list of actions that the West would have to take in order for Ukraine's Black Sea exports to resume.
