Romanian President Klaus Iohannis has condemned Russia's attacks on infrastructure on the Danube River in southern Ukraine, calling it a war crime.

He reported this on Twitter, according to Ukrinform.

"Russia's continued attacks against the Ukrainian civilian infrastructure on the Danube, in the proximity of Romania, are unacceptable. These are war crimes and they further affect Ukraine's capacity to transfer their food products towards those in need in the world," Iohannis wrote.
