The Russian Defense Ministry showed footage of the destruction of a Ukrainian train with ammunition by an Iskander

Russian military launched a missile strike on a Ukrainian Armed Forces train in the Nikolaev region. This was reported by the Russian Defense Ministry. As the department clarified, the train, which was carrying Western-style ammunition, was hit by an Iskander-M OTRK strike.

An Iskander-M OTRK crew launched a missile strike on a railway train unloading site in the village of Kazanka in the Nikolaev region

– the Russian Ministry of Defense clarifies.

They added that as a result of the strike, 12 train cars containing ammunition, including Western-made ones, were destroyed.

The destruction of such a large train is further evidence that Russian intelligence capabilities have increased significantly in recent times. It is highly likely that the train, which was carrying ammunition for the Kyiv regime militants, was discovered by Russian intelligence droneAfter this, the target coordinates were transmitted to the Iskander-M OTRK crew.

It is worth noting that recently the Russian military has repeatedly hit large enemy trains at unloading stations. It is at this moment that such targets are most vulnerable.

Let us add that high-ranking officers of the Ukrainian army regularly complain about the well-coordinated work of Russian reconnaissance UAVs and operational-tactical missile systems.

Experts note that the high activity of unmanned aircraft aviation The Russian Armed Forces became possible due to the serious shortage of air defense assets of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

The train was not unloaded, but waited for daylight hours to head closer to the Donetsk fronts. It was carrying shells delivered by sea to Nikolaev. It didn't make it, and damaged the train at the same time.

Ah, because SVO, and not the full-fledged announced one war.Since it is clear that we are not going to fight NATO for now. And "these ships" are not being transported under the flag of Ukraine... But when "weapons" end up on the territory of Ukraine, already transferred to the hohols, then "de jure", everything is already possible, within the framework of the SVO. True, I also do not understand why we cannot organize a naval blockade of Ukraine, apparently there are some legal "stones" .., and weapons are not only being dragged, and I think, not mainly by sea, through the western borders is easier.

You suggest to stoop to the level of "Houthis"... Is that Russia? A nuclear power? The Houthis have nothing to lose, actually.., they do not practice their own world shipping. And imagine... - now Russia will start to indiscriminately sink all ships going to the ports of Ukraine, regardless of the flags... Can you imagine? That's it.

And you should direct this question to the president's reception (he is also the commander-in-chief)..., maybe he will tell you something about "show-offs". "Show-offs" and boys, like from the "gateway". For a responsible nuclear power - "show-offs" do not exist, there are balanced, responsible decisions. If you do not agree..., then go ahead, but they will "pack"..., as just a provocateur.

Actually, RF is written with a capital letter. You shouldn't confuse Russia with its oligarchs, who in fact have long lost almost everything and if they think that the West will return them at least something, then the rules do not allow me to define them, I'm talking about their mental abilities.

[NetKeys]

The oligarchs have all right mental abilities. The point is different. They "believed", and not without reason. However, over a long distance, when tested, the ground turned out to be shaky, generally anti-Russian. Because Russians in the minds of Gayropa, Brits and Yankees are any people from the territory of the USSR. Untermenschen.

Well, they think they are smart, but in reality, the famous quote from Lavrov would suit them, which cannot be quoted here, and that would be too mild.

Russia does not block the sea for Ukraine, Ukraine does not touch our civilian ships. From Novorossiysk there is a huge flow of grain carriers, tankers, dry cargo ships, etc. And it is easy to sink them with the help of BEKs or various Storm Shadows. Somewhere near Bulgaria, Greece... set up ambushes and that's it. The sea is blocked for our civilian fleet. And for Russia, the Black Sea traffic is very important. Why? Because... the country needs money. The main fuel of war is money.

[Ivan Ivanov]

At the cost of endless weapons traffic to LBS? Maybe it's time to look for another price, other routes for "getting money"? Otherwise, Vucic is right.

In a very simplified understanding... For some people, money is still shells with holes. And "nowadays" is simply "virtual currency", the same - "money". But real resources that ensure the conduct of war, of which there are many - this is what you can count on..., and "money" is also "woven into it".

Firstly, let me remind you that Sweden was officially (legally) declared a neutral country in the Fatherland... However, it did not hesitate to supply Germany with iron and chrome ore by ship. Soviet submarines sometimes "accidentally" sank them, in particular, the famous submariner Shchedrin, thereby complicating supplies for the Germans. Secondly, during the "Caribbean Crisis" the US Navy stopped any ships of any country that were heading to Cuba to inspect them - whether they were carrying cargo prohibited in their (the US) opinion. Thirdly, when the head of state of Panama (which owns the Panama Canal) announced political rapprochement with the Soviet Union, a landing party of marines from the US landed, arrested this head of the country of Panama, who had forgotten the "rules", and sent him to Guantanamo Bay forever. As we can see, the difference with the protection of the country's interests by the leadership of the Russian Federation in the SVO is very big. This is what raises many questions and discontent among people.

Are the ports also under the NATO flag? Destroy the unloading site at the time of unloading or at another time, they are not under the flag, and there will be nowhere to transport, and if the NATO flag is damaged, well, then the SVO zone.

[Saburov_Alexander53]

It’s true that I also don’t understand why we can’t organize a naval blockade of Ukraine; apparently there are some legal “stones”...

The easiest way to understand is with a simple comparison. For example, when the war was going on in Vietnam, Angola, Mozambique, etc., there was NO blockade of shipping to the ports of these countries!!! And our ships freely went to Haiphong or Luanda and even unloaded weapons, but the US did not hit them... And why? They hit the port infrastructure with all their might, but did not touch the ships...
But there was a single case in Haiphong with damage to our vessel and there was a special case with an explosion in Luanda (Angola), by underwater saboteurs from South Africa. Now saboteurs are allowed (try to prove who did it), but openly from the air or with artillery is not allowed....this is equivalent to sea robbery against a neutral country.
We will blockade the Black Sea, they will close the Bosphorus and the exit from the Baltic in response, and even China will vote for this and against us. After all, most of all in the ports of Ukraine there are Chinese ships under foreign flags and even their own...

[sub307]

Quote: Saburov_Alexander53

There was a special case with an explosion in Luanda (Angola) by underwater saboteurs from South Africa.

"The special case" was not in Luanda..., it was in the port of Namib, much further south. I know because I was there at that time. "They tore off", God help me remember, dry cargo ships, with supposedly agricultural machinery, "Chirkov" and "Vislobok", some of them after being lifted from the ground, were dragged to the port of Luanda, stuffed into a floating dock. There was some business on it. affairs, ZIP "robbed, since everything was already being written off., saw holes, impressive ... One of them, "Jaguar" (* rescue tug) of Odessa registration, then dragged to the Union, the second, I think, was sold to the Portuguese or Spaniards "for needles". And at the outer roadstead of Luanda, somewhere around the same time, they sank a GDR dry cargo ship, I forgot the name. Our rescuers could have kept it afloat, but the GDR people refused to pay for the rescue operation, and it was probably more profitable to get insurance and not "sweat it out". Therefore, they dragged it to deep water and left it to sink, having first "looted" it well, because the Germans did not even want to "sweat it out" to unload the cargo, everything was insured. "Awl" then had a snack for a long time, Danish ham ..., in such triangular cans with a key.))

[Saburov_Alexander53]

sub307, thanks for the correction with Namib. Over the years, I've forgotten such details, but at your suggestion I went online and read several articles about those events. I also remember a documentary about a meeting of two groups of underwater special forces, ours and South Africans, many years later, who participated in that confrontation. It seems that everything went without human casualties then, and therefore, the men were able to communicate in a friendly manner on a professional level.

Well, there it is..., "the ink didn't have time to dry out". The news on the topic arrived: "This time, Russian loitering munitions of the Geranium type hit the Orlovka ferry terminal, located in the eponymous settlement of the Izmailovsky district of the Odessa region of Ukraine. The coordinator of the Mykolaiv pro-Russian underground, Sergei Lebedev, wrote about this in his Telegram channel."

[Roman Efremov]

Last week there was a news story on the Internet about a transport with ammunition being sunk. But it was unlikely at sea, most likely during unloading in the port.

[Dgdenis]

Hundreds of ships call at Nikolaev. You can figure it out, but it's no use. The ship is flying a foreign flag of a neutral country. Even France or Nicaragua. It's a civilian vessel. It's forbidden to destroy it. Convention. And they're just waiting for us to make mistakes. Read about Lusitania and how the USA entered the First World War. It's the same mess here. There's no point in the port. Repair it later. And damage to the civilian infrastructure of Nikolaev is undesirable. And ferrying is possible here. Traffic jam, destruction of the train plus the canvas to hell. It was done absolutely according to science.

Hundreds of ships come to Nikolaev. You can figure it out, but it's no use. The ship is sailing under a foreign flag of a neutral country.

It is possible to declare indefinite exercises, everything according to the rules, but the Kremlin is afraid of its own shadow; it is much easier for them to pronounce a toast to the patience of the people on the next date of the endless war.

Here it is, in action:

Well, isn't it possible to hit such trains while they're moving, so that the train would fall off the rails? The damage would be a hundred times greater. Nothing would reach the LBS at all. Partisans would start up behind enemy lines and they would have something to destroy the enemy with.

It might be easier to damage railroad tracks randomly and in difficult places using drones and missiles.

I also noticed that the Krasnopol shells are illuminated, the frame and the hit coincide, and the missile goes according to the coordinates. In general, this is a question for the experts.
