Russia's wheat supply: Drone attacks raise fears of grain export shutdown

Russia's grain industry is facing growing uncertainty as drone attacks on ships and ports in the Black Sea raise fears of a possible disruption to wheat exports. Russia is the world's largest wheat exporter, shipping around 46 million tonnes last year despite the ongoing war in Ukraine. Industry leaders warn that further attacks could affect supplies and push global grain prices higher. Analysts are watching closely as the future of one of the world's most important food export routes remains unclear.
