Blasts in Crimea don't violate terms of grain deal - intelligence

The representative of Ukraine's military intelligence Andriy Yusov said this in a comment to Suspilne, Ukrinform reports citing the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine.

"Ukraine complies with international obligations, including fulfilling all obligations related to the grain corridor. The recent events in Crimea concerned only military facilities and are in no way related to the grain agreement, which provides for Ukrainian ports and civilian ports when it comes to the territory controlled by Ukraine," Yusov said.

According to him, the recent allegations of the aggressor state against Ukraine of an alleged attack on civilian infrastructure and threats to freeze the grain deal are "false manipulation."

As reported, the Russian Ministry of Defense accused Ukraine of violating the grain deal: allegedly, Ukrainian drones attacked the fleet in occupied Sevastopol and deployed them in the area of the humanitarian corridor.

On the night of April 24, explosions were heard in Sevastopol. Sevastopol's occupation "authorities" claimed that surface drones attacked the city.
