So the railway line is going to be out of service for a week- and then crews will start trying to repair it.

Two or three more similar missile strikes, and there will be no more link between Crimea and Russian territory.

Smart Russians still in Crimea would be wise to leave now, while one lane is still passable. It won’t be up for much longer.

Russians- go home.
