Exercise Sea Breeze 2019 started in Odesa on July 1. About 30 ships, 24 planes and over 3,000 troops from around the world are participating in the drills. On July 2, Russia resorted to provocations and blocked an area of 8,000 square kilometers in the Black Sea, one of the locations of the exercise.
