The sabotage of the railway in Crimea, which took place on May 18, could disrupt the supply of missiles for the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation.
The incident on the railway was commented on by the intelligence of Great Britain. The report was published by the British Ministry of Defense.
According to the report, the train derailment blocked the only rail route to the port of Sevastopol, where the Black Sea Fleet is based.
Intelligence assumed that Russia would act quickly to repair the line, but the sabotage could disrupt deliveries, probably of Kalibr cruise missiles, to the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation.
It will be recalled that on May 18, in the occupied Crimea, at least 8 wagons with stolen Ukrainian grain derailed due to an explosion. Local mass media reported that 50 meters of railway track were damaged as a result of the explosion. The diameter of the funnel under the rails is about 15 meters, the depth is 2 meters.
