A Russian Iskander missile hit the Odesa port area on July 3, 2025, when dockworkers were unloading metal from a São Tomé and Príncipe-registered cargo ship, shortly after an air-raid warning was issued in Odesa at 12:47 p.m. Minutes later, the Ukrainian Air Force reported a Russian aerial asset approaching the city. Two people, one dock worker and a truck driver, were killed in the attack with the cluster ballistic missile, which is prohibited, Six people, including port employees and two Syrian crew members of the ship, were injuried. Vessel tracking were showing no ships in the Odesa region, but this is not unusual, as vessels are instructed to turn off their AIS when sailing to the Black Sea ports of Odesa, Chornomorsk and Yuzhnyy. Port infrastructure, such as gantry cranes, warehouses, and equipment as well as containers and trucks were damaged. Ukrainian officials have stated that the attack is not an isolated incident but a part of a campaign to separate Ukraine from the rest of the world by destroying its export infrastructure. These attacks are threatening global food security and have urgently called for an international response. On March 11, 2025, the Barbados-flagged bulk carrier 'MJ Pinar' was struck while loading wheat, resulting in the deaths of four crew members and injuring to others . On March 1, 2025, the Panama-flagged container m/v 'MSC Levante F' suffereed damage from a missile strike, injuring two port workers.

A Russian ballistic missile strike on the port of Odessa in southern Ukraine killed four Syrian people and damaged a Barbados-flagged cargo ship, on the evening of June 34, 2025, shortly after Ukraine agreed to a US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire with Russia.

Towing operations of the 'Wan Hai 503' were temporarily suspended after a fresh fire broke out on board. The blaze was detected again on July 4 , and as of July 5 morning, operations remained on hold. This has left the ship’s relocation to the port of Hambantota in Sri Lanka uncertain until the fire is fully extinguished. The Directorate General of Shipping (DG Shipping) is now considering moving the ship to a port in an African country. With the help of the tug 'Advantis Virgo’, about 12,000 litres of a chemical mixture have already been used to douse the fire. Around 3,000 litres of the mixture remained. Authorities are trying to procure additional chemical supplies from Singapore, if necessary. The Directorate General of Shipping has identified undeclared goods in 243 containers and suspected this may be the reason for the recurring fires despite intensified rescue efforts The 'Wan Hai 503' was positioned 3.5 nautical miles south of the 200-nautical mile boundary.

One person was killed, and around 35 were injured in an Israeli airstrike on Hodeidah Port on May 5, 2025. The airstrike was in direct retaliation for a missile strike by Yemen's Houthi rebels that landed near Ben Gurion Airport in Israel. Around 20 Israeli fighter jets participated in the airstrike, targeting sites that were being used to support Houthi military activities. The targets included the port of Hodeidah and a cement factory near the port, which has been alleged to be used by the Houthis for the construction of tunnels.
