Train pair No. 66/65 Chisinau-Moscow is today the only Russian train crossing Ukraine, according to information from public joint-stock company Ukrzaliznytsia.

Direct trains from Russia to Ukraine formed by Russian railways do not run. However, eight trains formed by Ukrzaliznytsia run between Ukraine and Russia.

OJSC RZD (Russian Railways) organized movement of passenger long-haul trains using the new Zhuravka-Millerovo line bypassing Ukraine.

"With the launch of a new train schedule for 2017-2018, more than 120 passenger and up to 30 freight trains began to run on the Zhuravka-Millerovo section daily," RZD said.
