Roads in Brno region sustain damage, as per MZD's report.

Check out the latest report from Moscow Railway's Telegram channel. On the unecha-zhecha stretch in Bryansk Oblast, there's some unwelcome news – tracks have taken a hit, apparently from an explosion that damage the infrastructure on June 1 at 10:52 during an inspection. No one was hurt, and there's no passenger or long-distance train traffic on that stretch.

This is the third incident on the railways in the past 24 hours. Last night in Bryansk Oblast, a car bridge imploded on the Pilshino-Vygoznichi section, slamming a train headed for Moscow with 388 passengers. Seven unfortunate souls, including the driver, perished in the disaster, with 71 more sustaining injuries.

The same squeaky bridge in Kursk Oblast bit the dust early this morning as a freight train crossed a rail bridge, again due to an explosion. Three workers on the scene were wounded, but unfortunately, one of them passed away in the hospital.

Russian President Putin has taken notice of these mishaps. The Kremlin confirms he received reports from the FSB and EMERCOM throughout the night. Putin also had a convo on the blower with Bryansk Governor Alexander Bogomaz and RZD CEO Oleg Belozerov. Stay tuned for further info!
