The ticket sales period for the remaining fall trips has been reduced from 90 to 45 days. In addition to security concerns and the shift to daytime operations, the occupiers cited track repair work on the Kerch Railway as the reason for this.

Grand Service Express is the only Russian rail operator providing passenger service to occupied Crimea under the “Tavria” brand via the Kerch Bridge. The carrier is subject to international sanctions for providing logistics support to the occupying authorities.

Earlier, Ukrainian intelligence discovered a new base for Russian naval drones in annexed Crimea. The occupiers built boathouses on Lake Donuzlav to test and store their unmanned boats.
