"Russia's Strikes on Ukraine's Port Cities and Crimea Bridge: Live Updates and Reopened Partially"

Russian airstrikes targeted southern Ukraine's port cities of Odesa and Mykolaiv, as well as eastern regions Donetsk and Kharkiv. This came after Russia pulled out of a grain deal, causing agricultural markets to spike. Meanwhile, Crimea's Kerch Bridge partially reopened after being damaged in an attack that Moscow blames on Ukraine. The Kremlin criticized the EU's stance on the lapsed grain deal, while Ukrainian officials reported that Russia launched air attacks using cruise missiles and drones. China was the top recipient of Ukrainian agricultural products under the Black Sea grain deal. President Joe Biden will meet with Pope Francis' envoy to discuss support for Ukraine.
