Ukrzaliznytsia in July 2022 increased the transportation of iron and manganese ore by 3.2% compared to the previous month – up to 2.03 million tons. Olexandr Kamyshyn, the head of the board of UZ, informed about it on his Telegram channel.
In general, for the month UZ transported 10.3 million tons of cargo, which is 9.2% more than in June of this year. In particular: oil products – 542 thousand tons (+12.2%), grain – 1.46 million tons (+7.2%), other cargo – 6.26 million tons (+11.6%).
