As a result of the destruction of an ammunition depot in Azovske, Crimea this morning. Railway services from Russia will stop at Feodosia on the south coast and passengers will travel by bus if they require an onward journey. Damage to the line is reportedly significant.
If the track has been significantly damaged or even destroyed, this is going to cause huge issues for Russian logistics in Kherson. Not only are the only bridges leading to the city heavily damaged, the one rail line they can use to resupply from Russia is out of commission.
Russians have been complaining about the ridiculous detour needed to get from Kerch to Simferopol, a new line (orange) was apparently proposed but as far as I can tell, hasn't been built.
Head of Crimea, Sergey Aksyonov claims that the damaged railway lines have been repaired. I guess we'll wait and see how true that is.
