"So far, we have seen that russians are testing locomotives. We have not yet recorded the passage of a single large freight train carrying anything. But russian locomotives have already been spotted near Mariupol. We can see them near Volnovakha, which means that there are only 'hours' left before the start. Why they have not launched this railroad yet is a question for us. Perhaps these are some bureaucratic obstacles that exist in russia, given their love of opening up everything involving a dictator, " Andriushchenko noted.
It is known that russians' aim is to connect Rostov-on-Don and occupied Mariupol to supply weapons by rail, bypassing the occupied Crimea.
