Ukrainian rail reserves nearly depleted after Russian strikes

Original: Here’s what The Counteroffensive is reading today: # Ukrainian train reserves are almost depleted after Russian attacks

Reports say Ukraine's reserve train stock is almost exhausted after repeated Russian attacks on its railway network, which moves troops, grain and aid. Kyiv is now turning to European neighbours that use the same Soviet-standard wide track gauge — notably Poland, Slovakia and others — to supply additional carriages and locomotives to keep critical rail logistics running.

Why now: Fresh Russian strikes on railways have exposed a critical shortage of rolling stock, raising urgent questions about Ukraine's wartime logistics and European resupply.
