The train was then hit in a precision strike by US-supplied HIMARS missiles, which destroyed the locomotive and the rear wagons.

Footage shows an explosion on a bridge in Russia’s Ulyanovsk region which Kyiv military intelligence agency GUR said has disrupted military transport operations by weakening its structure.

A spokesperson for the GUR said: “The explosion occurred in the railway district of Ulyanovsk, on a line near the Sviyaga River, a few kilometres from the local locomotive depot and the Ulyanovsk Motor Plant.

“The process of weakening the logistics facilities that Russia uses to wage a genocidal war against Ukraine continues.”
