⚡️💥🔎 Strike on the #Chaplino railway station⚡️
by Rybar:
#AFRF attacked this railway station in the #Dnipropetrovsk region yesterday. The #Ukrainian authorities blamed #Russia for the attack on a passenger train and claimed that several dozen civilians were killed.

However, Kiev was in no particular hurry to provide evidence of the "bloody crime". There was only one photo from the station, in which observers recognised a military truck 👇 on the platform of a supposed passenger train, which was captured in the picture.

Today, the doubts have finally been dispelled: a video

of the scene immediately after the attack has appeared on the net, clearly showing platforms with cargo and equipment covered with tarp. This confirms that the target was a military train.

Judging from the video, the troop cars were crushed and flattened by the explosion. The cameraman was only filming from one point, so it is difficult to determine the exact epicentre of the impact on the tracks and to assess the damage to the rest of the load.

Could the missile have hit a civilian train that happened to be passing nearby?
No!

🔺
▪️ Before the hostilities, only two long-distance trains passed through Chaplino: Krasnoarmeysk-Lvov and Krasnoarmeysk-Kirovograd. But they passed through the station without stop, and the probability that they were affected by yesterday's attack is practically nil.

🔺
▪️ Commuter trains from Dnipropetrovsk also go to Chaplino - up to 4 pairs of trains per day. The only thing you can see in the photo is that normal passenger coaches are affected, not the typical ER-2 trains.

🔺
Another important point is that the damaged train in the video is not on the main line, but on the outermost siding. Passenger trains simply do not run there, but it may well be that freight platforms or empty wagons are stationary or waiting to be reshaped.

Were there any civilian victims at all?

▪️ Unfortunately, yes: it is known that an 11-year-old boy died, and there is also information about the death of people in a car parked at the station. But they were accidental victims of a military target: for example,

a child died from the explosion of the second landing that hit near a nearby village.
Moreover, the #Ukrainian media are in no hurry at all to release the names and details of the deaths of the other 22 officially killed.

🔺
This strange selectivity can only be explained by the fact that they were all soldiers: according to reports from the field, the number of AFU casualties during the attack is much higher than the reported number.

And what was the result?

Analysis of data from open sources suggests with certainty that the target of the #AFRF attack was a military railway train. An unknown number of #AFU fighters and several civilians who were in the vicinity of the explosions were killed.

No matter how the #Kiev authorities and resources try to portray the incident as a targeted attack on a passenger train, objective evidence suggests otherwise.
