Details. “As a result of a Ukrainian strike against a russian ammunition train in Kherson oblast, southern Ukraine, it is highly unlikely the rail link connecting Kherson with Crimea remains operational. russian forces are likely to repair the railway line within a few days, although it will remain a vulnerability for russian forces and their supply chains from Crimea,” the intelligence officers say.
It is noted that after the Antonivka Road Bridge was damaged, the russians have set up a ferry crossing for civilian use, it is also expected to be used by the russian military for troop movements and logistical resupply.
British intelligence predicts that soon there will be an increase in civilians attempting to flee Kherson and the surrounding areas due to the threat of hostilities and the food shortages. Because of this, an increased pressure on transport nodes may be created and additional measures may be implemented by the occupation authorities to control the movement.
