Having launched over 800 drones on May 13, Russia targeted
railway infrastructure across Ukraine, Ukrainian
Railways (UZ) said in a statement.
Twenty-three strikes hit railway facilities, and two railway workers were killed in Zdolbuniv, Rivne Oblast. One other worker was injured.
UZ said the strikes damaged energy infrastructure, bridges and passenger, freight-car and locomotive depots in Zakarpattia, Lviv, Zhytomyr, Rivne, Volyn, Kharkiv, and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts. The company also reported hits on rolling stock; three locomotives were damaged overnight.
“In the rail town of Zdolbuniv, two of our colleagues lost their lives. They were not at their workplaces at the time, but the enemy strikes without discrimination. One colleague was wounded there; we are providing assistance,” UZ said.
The company warned that the attack could cause temporary
train delays, operational schedule changes and route adjustments, and urged
passengers to follow announcements at stations and on trains.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
