Russian President Vladimir Putin announced on March 18 the construction of a railway branch from Rostov-on-Don in southern Russia through temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine to Crimea. According to Putin, the first segment of the railway allegedly restores access to Burdiansk. However, British intelligence emphasises that the existing railway passes through territory vulnerable to Ukrainian long-range precision strike systems. The new railway branch, nearly 60 kilometres long, south of Donetsk was under construction for eight months. It is almost certainly one of the largest infrastructure projects. Russia has carried out in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and re-establishes the rail connection denied by the fighting outside of Donetsk the summery states.

Pavlo Narozny, founder of the charity organisation Reactive Post and military expert told RadioNV. Most likely it was a cruise missile strike or a storm-shadow or, for example, a modified Neptune, which is also a possible option. In any case, this is a very powerful strike. Narozny said he believes it was a successful attack on Russian logistics. Russia has quite a few large landing ships because this is probably the sixth ship hit. If they are not damaged but destroyed, it is also a very powerful blow to logistics because these ships can transport either a battalion or armoured vehicles. But usually, Russia employs them to transport shells, shaheads and ammunition. These ships are mostly used for ammunition. This is a very powerful blow to Russian logistics, he added. An oil depot located near the airfield was hit, which means the fuel for warplanes was most likely burned. The expert adds, Russia suffered losses in personnel as propagandists write that up to 50 soldiers were killed, 30 of them officers said Narozny, citing Russian mill bloggers. Three aircraft were also damaged at this airfield, the military expert said, with reference to Russian war correspondence.
