The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) of the OSCE SMM (Special Monitoring Mission of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe) has spotted an active transport connection between “DNR” and the Russian Federation. This is reported in the OSCE SMM report.

The mission’s report states that on July 12 at least one train consisting of 12 cars departed from the Kvashyno railway station (the territory of the Donetsk region occupied by Russian-led terrorists) and exiting Ukraine.

“On the night of 12 July, an SMM long-range UAV spotted a train (with at least 12 wagons, cargo not visible) facing an easterly direction at the train station in Kvashyne (non-government-controlled, 65km south-east of Donetsk). Within a 15-minute span, the same train was spotted moving in a south-easterly direction about 4.5km south-east of Kvashyne and then exiting Ukraine,” the report says.

Also on July 12, about 1km east of Manych an SMM long-range UAV spotted a truck moving north-east on dirt and asphalt roads towards the border with the Russian Federation where there are no border crossing facilities. The same truck was then spotted in a field about 3.5km east-north-east of Manych and about 200m west of the Russian-Ukrainian border.

On July 14, at a border crossing point near Voznesenivka the SMM fixed vehicles exiting Ukraine.

On the same day, the SMM saw a cargo train heading east, but could not determine the number of railway cars and their contents. After a few minutes, a member of the armed formations told the SMM to leave the area.
