Russia has initiated full railway connections between Rostov and Mariupol.

The next step is to extend the railway line to Crimea.
Россия запустила полноценное железнодорожное сообщение между Ростовом и Мариуполем.

Russia has launched full railway connections between Rostov-on-Don, Mariupol, Volnovakha, and Donetsk.

According to reports from the Mariupol City Council.

“The Russian occupiers have rebuilt the railway line to shorten the delivery route for military equipment to the front from Rostov-on-Don to Mariupol and Volnovakha. The railway line is also planned to extend to Crimea,” the Center for Occupation Studies informs.

The city council reminded that the occupiers continue to develop military logistics around Mariupol. The new railway branch in the “deep rear” is intended to simplify military logistics and reduce the Russian army’s dependence on the Crimean Bridge.

“Partisans have repeatedly carried out sabotage activities, but the occupiers continue construction,” the Mariupol City Council added.

Background. Earlier, Mind reported that the partisans “Atesh” announced a sabotage on the railway near the Russian arsenal in the Tver region. The arsenal stores Iskander ballistic missiles, Tochka-U missiles, large-caliber artillery shells, and ammunition for MLRS.
