However, it is not yet clear whether Russia carried out this attack intentionally or unintentionally. This attack has happened at a time when Putin is going to visit China soon.

Russia-Ukraine war still going on

Due to the Iran-America war, the world’s attention has diverted from the war between Russia and Ukraine. But this war is still going on and both the countries are attacking each other every day. Ukraine took back its land from Russia and is attacking many areas of Russia with drones and missiles. Ukrainian officials said two civilian ships were badly hit in the attacks on Monday. In this, the flag of Marshall Islands was installed on one ship. While the other ship was operating under the flag of Guinea-Bissau. According to the information, both the ships were heading towards the ports of Odessa region.
