This study examines the state of the natural resource potential of the coastal regions of Ukraine, related to Russian aggression against Ukraine. The cited studies show that Ukraine has developed several legislative and regulatory acts in the field of use of the natural marine environment and adjacent territories, which correspond to international and European legal acts. Grossly violating international law, Russia caused significant economic damage not only to the population of the annexed territories but also to the environment. According to the Ministry of Environment of Ukraine, more than 3,600 crimes against the environment were recorded. This is the pollution of sea waters, the destruction of nature-protected areas, flora and fauna unique to this region. Damages caused to the environment are preliminarily estimated at more than 60 billion US dollars. The research methodology is based on statistical analysis of expert assessments given in official open state sources and mass media. Analytical studies made it possible to establish certain types of biodiversity that will be difficult to reproduce, as well as to outline the magnitude of the main catastrophic consequences of Russian aggression not only for Ukraine but also for the entire civilized world. Based on the conducted research, the conclusions were made that the existing international legal acts do not fully ensure adequate protection and protection of the environment, which in turn necessitates the development and improvement of effective legal, economic and other mechanisms of responsibility for ecocide. At this stage of military aggression in Ukraine, issues of environmental monitoring and assessment of growing losses come to the fore.
