In the temporarily occupied Crimea, unknown persons blew up the railway section between Simferopol and Sevastopol. Because of this, a train carrying grain derailed.
This was reported by the occupying head of Crimea Serhiy Aksyonov. Messages from Telegram channels also testify to this.
The incident occurred on the section of the railway line Simferopol — Sevastopol near Bakhchisaray.
"Cars with grain derailed in the Simferopol district... The movement of electric trains on the Simferopol-Sevastopol route has been suspended," Aksyonov wrote.
The head of the occupation administration of the peninsula did not specify what caused the incident.
The Russian Telegram channel Baza wrote with reference to its own sources that the train derailed as a result of an explosion that damaged the railway track.
It is noted that the explosion damaged about 50 meters of canvas. A large funnel was formed at the site of the explosion.
Telegram channel SHOT writes that more than 70 meters of railway track were damaged as a result of the explosion.
There were 23 carriages in the train, which at that moment was moving along the canvas. Of them, 11 derailed, and one more was torn into pieces.
This road connects Sevastopol with Simferopol, where the branch connects with the railway, which leads towards the illegally built Crimean bridge and the temporarily occupied part of the Kherson region.
It will be recalled that on May 2, in the Bryansk region, unknown persons of the aggressor country damaged the railway, as a result of which a freight train derailed.
A day before, on May 1, a train derailed in the Bryansk region also after sabotage on the railway.
