A total of 3.7 million tonnes of Ukrainian grain have been stolen in the temporarily occupied territories, excluding the Crimean peninsula.

"In the temporarily occupied territories, excluding the Crimean peninsula, 3.7 million tonnes of Ukrainian grain have been stolen. Of them, 1.4 million tonnes have been stolen in Zaporizhzhia region. The Russians steal all this grain from farmers who are forced to sell their products at fixed prices many times lower than market ones. The grain is then resold to enterprises related to Kremlin-installed officials and sold at market prices in the Russian Federation," the National Resistance Center posted on Telegram.

The National Resistance Center emphasizes that everyone involved in grain theft will be held to account in accordance with the current legislation of Ukraine.

As reported, Russia destroyed 180,000 tonnes of grain crops, 26 port infrastructure facilities, and five civilian ships during nine days of shelling in July.
