Three people, including an eight-year-old child, were killed and 24 people were injured in the attack. A major grain trading company confirmed its terminal was hit. The Russian agriculture ministry announced it was working to redirect cargo flows to ports in the Baltic and Caspian Seas as well as land routes, "taking into account current logistical constraints." An emergency situation was declared in the city, suspending water supply due to damaged pipelines. Elsewhere in the region, a man was killed by drone debris.
