> Ukraine will partly compensate civilian vessels damaged by Russian attacks in the Black Sea, covering up to 80% of assessed losses when insurance does not. The scheme includes ships, cargo and emergency-response costs. Moscow declined to guarantee safe passage for Turkish, Indian and Egyptian vessels offering to transport food from Ukrainian and Russian ports.
