According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, the total weight of the transported grain amounts to 1,023 tons, with a net weight of 770 tons.
The cargo is scheduled to pass through the Boyuk Kasik railway station into Georgia, from where it will continue its transit toward Armenia. This route highlights the utilization of Azerbaijan's transit infrastructure for international cargo shipments. Previously, on March 9, a similar shipment consisting of 7 wagons carrying 488 tons of Russian grain was transported to Armenia through Azerbaijani territory.
Azerbaijan serves as a pivotal logistics hub in the South Caucasus, facilitating the transit of goods between Russia, Georgia, and other regional partners. The country has invested heavily in modernizing its railway network and stations, such as Bilajari and Boyuk Kasik, to enhance the efficiency of the Middle Corridor and North-South transport routes. These transit operations are conducted in accordance with international transport regulations and regional logistics agreements.
