On the night of November 29-30, a significant explosion rocked the Baikal-Amur Mainline within the Severomuysky Tunnel, named after Vladimir Bessolov, situated in Buryatia, Russia. This tunnel serves as a critical railway link connecting Russia and China, notably utilized for military shipments. The explosion, involving four explosive devices during the transit of a freight train, has resulted in the paralysis of this crucial route for Russian military supplies. According to sources linked to Ukrainska Pravda, the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) is allegedly responsible for orchestrating this detonation. The official stance from the special service remains unconfirmed, and while the Federal Security Service (FSB) is actively addressing the aftermath on-site, railway personnel are engaged in challenging efforts to mitigate the repercussions of what is purported to be an SSU-led special operation. The incident marks a significant development with potential far-reaching consequences for the region’s transportation infrastructure and geopolitical dynamics.
