A child was killed and six people injured in a Russian shelling of the town of Kostyantynivka in Donetsk, eastern Ukraine.\n
Drone strikes were reported over the city of Moscow: one landed on Komsomolsky Prospect near the Russian Defense Ministry, while another hit a shopping center on Likhacheva Street, near one of Moscow’s main ring roads. “An attempt by the Kiev regime to use two drones to carry out a terrorist attack on targets in the Moscow city has been stopped,” the Russian Defense Ministry said. The attack was a “special operation” by Ukraine’s secret service, a source in the Kyiv Defense Ministry said.

A Russian attack instead targeted Ukrainian port infrastructure in the southern Odessa region, destroying a grain shed. Iranian drones hit grain storage infrastructure at river ports of Reni and Izmail on the Danube, on the border of Odessa Oblast and Romania: 4 people injured.

Una possibile proroga del divieto di importazione della UE sul grano ucraino, come richiesto da cinque paesi confinanti con l’Ucraina per proteggere i propri agricoltori, è \”inaccettabile\” per il presidente ucraino Volodymyr Zelensky. \”Qualsiasi proroga delle restrizioni è assolutamente inaccettabile e francamente antieuropea. L’Europa ha la capacità istituzionale di agire in modo più razionale piuttosto che chiudere il confine a una particolare merce\”, ha affermato Zelensky nel suo post quotidiano sui social media. E ha auspicato che \”la parte europea adempia ai propri obblighi\” quando le restrizioni in vigore scadranno il 15 settembre. Polonia, Bulgaria, Ungheria, Slovacchia e Romania in una dichiarazione congiunta firmata mercoledì hanno chiesto a Bruxelles di prorogare l’embargo sulle importazioni di cereali ucraini nel loro territorio fino alla fine dell’anno. A giugno, la Commissione europea aveva annunciato che queste restrizioni potrebbero essere prorogate fino al 15 settembre, nonostante l’opposizione di Kiev e la resistenza di parte dei Ventisette. Di fronte all’afflusso di prodotti agricoli ucraini a seguito della revoca dei dazi doganali da parte dell’Unione europea nel maggio 2022, i paesi vicini all’Ucraina a metà aprile avevano vietato unilateralmente le importazioni per arginare la saturazione dei loro silos e il crollo dei prezzi locali. La dichiarazione di Zelensky arriva dopo che la Russia ha abbandonato l’importante accordo che consentiva l’esportazione di grano ucraino dai porti sul Mar Nero.

Zelenskyy: “Unacceptable extension of EU import ban on Ukrainian wheat”
A possible extension of the EU import ban on Ukrainian wheat, as requested by five countries bordering Ukraine to protect their farmers, is “unacceptable” for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. “Any extension of restrictions is absolutely unacceptable and frankly anti-European. Europe has the institutional capacity to act more rationally rather than closing borders on a specific commodity,” Zelenskyy said in his daily social media post. And he hopes that “the European side will meet its obligations” when the current restrictions expire on September 15. Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Slovakia and Romania called on Brussels to extend the embargo on Ukrainian grain imports into their territories until the end of the year in a joint statement signed on Wednesday. In June, the European Commission announced that these restrictions could be extended until September 15, despite opposition from Kiev and part of the Twenty-Seven. Faced with the influx of Ukrainian agricultural products following the European Union’s lifting of tariffs in May 2022, Ukraine’s neighbors unilaterally banned imports in mid-April to curb the saturation of their silos and the collapse in local prices. Zelenskyi’s statement came after Russia withdrew from the important deal that allowed Ukrainian grain to be exported from Black Sea ports.

Russia bans state officials from using iPhones for fear of spying
Russia fears espionage and imposes a ban on using Apple products for work activities because “the US can intercept calls”. It is the Kremlin’s response to growing fears of espionage. This ban affects thousands of state officials and employees and represents another step to counter the presence of the Cupertino-based company on Russian territory. According to reports in the Financial Times, Russian intelligence experts assume that the Americans could use Apple devices to intercept telephone calls. According to the Russian Security Service, several thousand iPhones with Russian SIM cards registered at diplomatic missions in Moscow in NATO countries, as well as in Israel, Syria and China were infected with tracking software that indicated Apple’s complicity with the US National Security Agency. But from Cupertino the message was denied.
