Because of this week’s Progress freighter launch failure, Russia plans two unmanned test launches of its Soyuz rockets before flying crews on them to ISS.
One of these test launches will carry a new Progress freighter, with supplies for ISS.

probably a good idea to be as careful as possible . if they lost people on a launch now it could be very bad for business
