The brief

Two grocery chains in Ukraine have had their warehouses damaged in Russian attacks. The strikes are part of a broader campaign that has also targeted an oil depot and an ice cream producer's warehouse. The attacks have raised concerns about food shortages and the narrowing of product ranges.

The attacks on EKO Market and Dunaiskyi Ahroariy chains, along with the destruction of an ice cream producer's warehouse in Kyiv, underscore the impact of the conflict on Ukraine's food supply. The strikes have occurred within a short span, indicating a targeted effort to disrupt the country's food distribution networks. The attacks have left Ukrainians facing empty grocery shelves, exacerbating the hardships of wartime.

The situation is particularly dire in Kyiv, where vendors are struggling to operate outside a recently obliterated flea market. The Ukrainian government has stated that while there is no immediate risk of food shortages, the range of available products may narrow.
