Leading exporters pull out of Russia

Three of the world's largest grain distributors will pull out of Russia by July, which could hit the global wheat market.

Three leading grain exporters have announced they will no longer handle Russian grain exports. From July, the companies will only charter cargo ships for agricultural shipments from Russia.

The move has stoked fresh concerns about global food security and increasing prices.
