In the temporarily occupied Crimea, following yesterday's collapse of the automobile bridge on the Djankoy - Maslovo road and the damage to the railway track located beneath this overpass, cargo transport has come to a halt. This includes military transport.

This information was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing Russian media.

The incident occurred on the eve of Wednesday, November 13.

At that time, representatives of the occupying "administration" did not disclose the cause of the bridge collapse, while the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations stated that there were casualties at the scene.

Later, the "Investigative Committee" of the occupiers for the region claimed that the bridge collapse was due to the movement of overloaded heavy transport.

As of today, according to Kremlin media, communication along this stretch between the Ukrainian Djankoy district controlled by Russian invaders and the mainland part of the country in the south has still not been restored.

On November 14, the "Southern Suburban Passenger Company" informed representatives of propaganda media that "train services have been suspended on the Solenoe Lake - Djankoy section in Crimea due to the bridge collapse."

However, just yesterday in the occupying "Ministry of Transport," following the bridge collapse on the Djankoy - Maslovo highway, they assured that there were supposedly no disruptions in railway transport.

It should be noted that according to representatives of the Ukrainian partisan movement "Atesh," Russian invaders frequently transfer military equipment to the mainland of Ukraine via railway through Djankoy. Thus, Djankoy is an important military hub for the occupiers in terms of logistics.

Recall that in May, partisans recorded ongoing logistics issues in the RF after a strike on the airport in occupied Djankoy in Crimea.

Additionally, back in March of last year, the Defense Forces of southern Ukraine noted after a series of explosions in Djankoy, which is a key station, that the disruption of the occupiers' logistics would continue.
