Summary/Abstract: One of the important effects of the war between Russia and Ukraine is the interruptions in global supply chains. The aim of this research is to examine the effects of the Russia-Ukraine war on the Central Logistics Corridor, which passes through Türkiye and turns into an important alternative route. In the research, the effects of the war on the middle logistics corridor were examined by applying the qualitative design case study method. In order to determine the intensity experienced in the middle corridor, the number of commercial vehicle entrances and exits from the land customs gates and the rail transport freight amounts transported from Kars Logistics Center were analyzed using the descriptive analysis method. The findings obtained as a result of the analysis show that the middle corridor is intensly used in terms of both road and rail freight transport. The intensity of the logistics load in the middle corridor due to political crisis in the region, especially during the 2021-2022 period, is shown by the amount of cargo carried. This intensity shows that the middle logistics corridor is an important alternative to the current transportation crisis and will be a transportation route that is likely to be used effectively in the future.
