Nearly 15% of Ukrainian grain storage facilities have been destroyed or captured by Russians

Ukraine has lost nearly 15% of its grain storage capacity in the war with Russia, the US government-backed Conflict Observatory reported. According to the report, Russians had seized 6.24 million tonnes’ worth of food storage capacity, and another 2.25 million tonnes of capacity in Ukrainian hands had been destroyed.

In total, the war has removed around 8.5 million of Ukraine’s 58-million-tonne storage capacity, threatening the country’s future ability to get crucial supplies of wheat, corn, and sunflower oil to the world market, according to the report.
