Ten people have died following a Russian missile attack on a corn cargo ship that had just left the port of Odesa, the Ukrainian Port Authority announced. "The search and rescue operation continued throughout the night. The fire that broke out on the ship has been contained. Eight sailors were rescued and brought ashore. But ten people, including a port authority naval pilot, were killed," Ukrainian sources explain. On board the hit ship, flying the flag of Guinea-Bissau, there was a crew composed of Indians and Syrians.
