Russia pulls out of grain deal, accuses Britain of aiding pipeline, drone attacks

Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Russia on Saturday accused Britain of being behind a "terrorist attack" on the Nord Stream gas pipeline and said it is pulling out of a deal to safely allow grain shipments from ports in occupied Ukraine.

The Kremlin did not elaborate or provide any direct evidence supporting the claim that Britain had anything to do with damaging the key pipeline between Russia and the West in late September.

The Russian defense ministry also accused Britain's special forces of helping to conduct a "massive" drone attack Saturday on Russian ships in the Black Sea. It used that incident as the basis for pulling out of the multi-country deal to allow the safe export of agricultural products from Russian-occupied Ukrainian ports.

The drone attack took place in the early hours of Saturday at the Russian-occupied port of Sevastopol in the illegally annexed Crimean peninsula. One Russian ship suffered minor damage, according to Moscow.
