An explosion took place on the railway in occupied Crimea.

The Russian media reported on this.

It is reported that several railway wagons of the freight train derailed as a result of the incident.

According to Telegram channels, the railway line was blown up in the Simferopol district of temporarily occupied Crimea on the morning of Thursday, May 18.

Later, the adviser to the head of the Russian occupation administration of Crimea reported that five train cars with grain had derailed due to the detonation of the railway.
