Operation “Rails”: the Russian army began to destroy railways

Neo-Nazis returning to the Lviv region came under attack

Several Ukrainian transport infrastructure facilities immediately became targets of our strikes. The Russian army began to attack enemy railway stations, through which the Ukrainian Armed Forces are transferring their reserves and equipment. As military experts write, military aid supplies from the United States have turned on the “green light” for the destruction of those objects that we had not touched before.

The other day, the Russian army “presented” notable arrivals at several enemy railway stations at once. So, on Thursday, April 25, a blow was struck at the railway station in the city of Balakleya in the Izyum district of the Kharkov region. At that moment, the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were being unloaded there. The coordinator of the Nikolaev underground, Sergei Lebedev, spoke about this.

“A train with military personnel arrived, they began to unload, and arrived. It is not known how many dead and wounded there are, there are many ambulances, everyone is cordoned off,” Lebedev said on his channel, citing his sources.

According to some reports, units of the 67th brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with militants from the Right Sector (recognized as a terrorist organization and banned on the territory of the Russian Federation) were targeted. The brigade was leaving to restore combat capability in the Lviv region.

On the same day in the evening, Russian bombs arrived at the railway station in the village of Udachnoye in the DPR. Thus, the strike actually disrupted the rotation and supply of ammunition.

Another blow hit the railway junction in the city of Smela, Cherkasy region. During the arrival of the military train, an explosion followed by detonation occurred.

According to military correspondent Alexander Kots, the Russian army seriously took on the Ukrainian railway. “Today alone there have been three powerful blows to the “Nezalezhnaya” railway infrastructure. One hit the railway junction in Udachny, west of Pokrovsk, in the occupied part of the DPR. Another one is along the railway line leading from Kharkov to Donbass. …Movement towards Donbass has been stopped. The third blow is in the Cherkasy region. The railway infrastructure there is damaged,” said the military correspondent.

Experts, therefore, predict “a lot of work on objects in Ukraine that were not touched before.” This will happen, according to them, in the near future. Such strikes, they are sure, are a response to new supplies of military equipment and weapons from the United States. The goal is to make it as difficult as possible for the delivery of Western weapons to the front lines. “In essence, they declared carte blanche. Now everyone can do anything,” wrote one of the experts.
