Delivery of Kh-101 missiles to the Russian strategic airfield is at risk: resistance movement statement
The movement "Soprotivlenie 'Svoboda Rossii'" reported an operation against railway infrastructure in Moscow, Tambov, and Saratov regions of the Russian Federation. According to movement members, damage to locomotives and relay equipment caused delays to military trains that were transporting Kh-101 cruise missiles and aviation components to the strategic Engels-2 airfield. There is currently no independent confirmation of this operation or its results.
This is reported by Russian and Ukrainian media, citing representatives of the movement.
They say that railway routes were used to transport Kh-101 missiles and components to the Engels-2 airfield, which is one of the key bases of Russian strategic aviation. From there, Tu-95 bombers can be mobilized for missile strikes against Ukraine.
The movement claims that, due to increased production volumes of cruise missiles, the Russian military is making greater use of rail transport to deliver weapons and equipment.
What damage did the railway infrastructure sustain
According to representatives of "Soprotivlenie 'Svoboda Rossii'", two diesel locomotives, one electric locomotive, and several relay cabinets were put out of service during the operation.
Movement participants claim this led to delays of military trains and disruption of delivery schedules for missiles and aviation components. In their view, such actions should complicate support for Russian strategic aviation and affect preparations for mass missile strikes on Ukraine.
At the same time, open sources have not found independent confirmation of the damage to the specified locomotives and railway equipment as part of this operation. There is also currently no confirmed data on the actual volumes of delayed shipments or the incident's impact on deliveries of Kh-101 missiles to the airfield.
"Engels-2" remains an important facility of Russian strategic aviation, which is used to carry out strikes on Ukraine.
Recall that SBU long-range drones struck the strategic missile carrier Tu-95 at the Russian Engels air base.
