Another train with army property from the Russian military base in
Georgia left for Armenia on Thursday, a spokesman for the base’s
command told Interfax-Military News Agency on the phone from Batumi.

“The train is carrying 45 vehicles,” he said.

The official said the destination was the Russian base in Gyumri.

“The first train left Batumi for Gyumri on May 25. It carried 54
units of military equipment, mainly logistical equipment,” he said.

A total of seven trains with military vehicles and other army property
will leave Batumi for Gyumri.

The headquarters of the Russian force in Transcaucasia told
Interfax-AVN on Thursday that the train that left Batumi was the fifth
this year to take out army property from Russian bases in Georgia.
