Putin has an unexpected ally — heat and drought in Europe, — Newsweek
Abnormal heat and drought in Europe have complicated the operation of Ukraine’s alternative export routes, including along the Danube, and thus have played into Russia’s hands.
Because of low water levels, the Danube, which Ukraine has been using to export grain after attacks on Black Sea ports, has become partially unsuitable for navigation. At the same time, Russia is intensifying strikes on Ukrainian ports and transport infrastructure.
The low water level has also hit electricity production in Romania, part of which was supplied to Ukraine.
