"UK Intelligence Investigates Russian Strike on Civilian Ship in Odesa"

TL;DR
UK intelligence suggests that Russia may have struck a civilian ship in a Ukrainian port with a missile due to "poor weapons employment tactics." The missile, likely an AS-17 KRYPTON, may have locked onto the ship's radar while targeting Ukrainian military radars in the area. The attack resulted in the death of a harbor pilot and injuries to three crew members and a port worker. Russia has been targeting Ukraine's ports as part of its ongoing invasion, causing global food prices to rise.
