Russian Drone Strike Kills Over a Dozen at Dnipro Railway Station in UkrainePreviousNext

On October 29, a Russian jet-powered drone struck a crowded platform at the Dnipro railway station in central Ukraine, killing at least 13 to 14 people and injuring between five and 14 others. The attack hit platforms where commuter and passenger trains were preparing to depart for Zaporizhzhia. Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, condemned the strike as horrific and called for continued international sanctions against Russia. Emergency services responded promptly amid warnings of elevated threat levels prior to the attack.
