Putin's press secretary Dmytro Peskov said that the explosion of the Tolyatti-Odesa ammonia pipeline can "only negatively" affect the grain agreement, rosZMI reports.

 Peskov, commenting on the damage to the ammonia pipeline in the Kharkiv region, said that Moscow does not seem to know what the destruction is there and "what the Ukrainian side is going to do next with this branch." He noted that the topic of resuming the operation of the Togliatti-Odesa ammonia pipeline "appeared as an integral part of the half of the agreement that concerned" the Russian side.

 "Therefore, let's put it this way, this is another moment that greatly complicates the situation in terms of extending the agreement," he added.

 The Ministry of Defense of the aggressor country announced the detonation of the Tolyatti-Odesa ammonia pipeline on the evening of June 5 near the village of Masyutivka in the Kharkiv region, blaming the "Ukrainian DRG" for this.

 The head of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration, Oleg Synegubov, said that on the evening of June 5, Russian occupation forces shelled the Kupyan district, hitting a pipeline with ammonia. As a result of enemy strikes, the pipeline was depressurized. According to RMA, the leakage of ammonia after the Russian shelling was insignificant. At the time of the impact, the ammonia pipeline was blocked, and technological residues remained in the pipe. The emergency safety system has worked. In Masyutivka, measurements showed 7 nanograms per cubic meter. For safe values up to 10 nanograms.

 On June 6, the occupiers shelled the ammonia pipeline in the Kupyan district for the second time. Only 6 arrivals in the area of the pumping station near the village were recorded. Masyutivka No ammonia was recorded in the air.

 On June 6, at a meeting with journalists, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi, commenting on the damage to the ammonia pipeline, noted that Ukraine can restore its operation "if necessary."
