Russia obliterates Ukrainian train with 1,300 tons of ammo

Russian Iskander missiles hit Ukrainian cargo train carrying 1,300 tons of ammo

The Russian Armed Forces targeted a railway unloading site in the village of Kazanka in the Mykolaiv region with an Iskander-M missile strike. The train was loaded with up to 1,300 tons of ammunition, enough for weeks of hostilities, as reported by the Russian Defence Ministry.

The Defense Ministry reported that 12 rail cars loaded with ammunition, including Western-made rounds, were destroyed in a single missile strike. The Iskander missiles hit the train as it pulled into the station, according to the Military Chronicle Telegram channel.

Military correspondents estimated the train was carrying between 840 to 1,300 tons of ammunition, a quantity similar to the recent attack on a major ammo depot in Toropets, Central Russia.
