Ukraine Proposes Deal With Russia to Halt Attacks on Civilian Ships in the Black Sea

Ukraine has proposed an agreement with Russia aimed at halting attacks on civilian ships in the Black Sea as both sides continue targeting vessels. Turkish officials said they were relaying the Ukrainian proposal to Moscow while calling for a moratorium on attacks amid rising strikes affecting commercial traffic. The push comes as Ukraine and Russia trade blows on shipping routes, with foreign-flagged vessels increasingly caught in the conflict, prompting fears over broader damage to trade and safety at sea.
