Amid the wheat harvest in Ukraine, many fields near the frontlines are burning.

In the Kharkiv region, a Ukrainian serviceman going by the name of Kurt, told the Associated Press the fires burning in the wheat fields he had been working on were caused by Russian shelling.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited a Black Sea port Friday as crews prepared terminals to export grain trapped by Russia's five-month-old war.

Work followed a deal reached a week ago to allow critical food supplies to flow to millions of impoverished people facing hunger worldwide.
