Moscow, Ramadan 18, 1436, July 05, 2015, SPA -- A Russian supply craft successfully docked with the International Space Station on Sunday following the recent failure of two other launches, dpa reported. The unmanned Progress craft and its haul of 2.5 metric tons of fuel, oxygen, food, water and other supplies arrived around 0700 GMT, Russia's space agency Roscosmos said in a statement. The cargo had been anxiously awaited after two previous launches of supply ships to the space station - in April by the Russians and just days ago by the Americans - failed. A Japanese cargo craft is also due to launch next month to bring further supplies to the space station's three crew members - Russians Gennady Padalka and Mikhail Kornienko and American Scott Kelly. --SPA 11:31 LOCAL TIME 08:31 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
