UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres "unequivocally condemns" reported strikes on Saturday on Ukraine's Odesa port, a UN spokesperson said, adding that all parties in the Russia-Ukraine conflict had committed to a deal on Friday for the export of grains from Ukrainian ports.

"These products are desperately needed to address the global food crisis and ease the suffering of millions of people in need around the globe," UN spokesperson Farhan Haq mentioned in a statement. "Full implementation by the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Türkiye are imperative."
