Wheat futures recovered from their recent rout after a Ukraine port was attacked and amid looming uncertainty over the next round of Black Sea grain export talks. 

Russian forces fired at least seven missiles on the southern Ukraine port of Mykolayiv on Wednesday, regional governor Vitaliy Kim said on Telegram. The area is normally a major hub for Ukrainian agriculture shipments. Crop trader Viterra said one of its terminals there was struck and a Bunge facility was also hit.
