Russian Drone Hits Kyiv-Warsaw Train Near Polish Border, No Casualties Reported
A Russian drone struck the locomotive of a passenger train traveling from Kyiv to Warsaw near Ukraine's border with Poland on September 13, damaging the train but causing no casualties among the 206-208 passengers aboard. Ukrainian officials condemned the attack as a deliberate escalation by Russia, with Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha calling it a threat to the EU and NATO. The train was evacuated after advance warning, and the incident delayed its border crossing by about six hours. Separate strikes also hit a truck and petrol station near the border.
