This is such a dumb move... It achieves NOTHING in the war itself, only hurts non conflict countries that already struggle with hunger and poverty.
Ukraine should send messages to the customers (likely in the Middle East and Africa) that would have consumed that grain and let them know that Russia destroyed it instead of letting it being eaten.
Maybe they want to cause famine so that people emigrate to and destabilize Europe and the US.
