A Russian drone struck a train near the Ukraine-Poland border shortly after high-profile European officials passed through, according to Ukrainian authorities. The attack occurred in western Ukraine, near Yahodyn, following a gathering in Kyiv. The incident happened moments after former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other dignitaries left the area.
Ukrainian state railway operator Ukrzaliznytsia reported the attack, though details remain limited. The strike highlights ongoing tensions along the border, with Russia accused of using drones to target infrastructure. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump has urged Ukraine to halt attacks on Russian diesel refineries, linking the conflict to a global diesel shortage.
Trump’s call comes amid rising diesel prices and growing concerns over supply chain disruptions. His remarks were made during a visit to Ireland, where he also addressed broader geopolitical issues. Ukrainian officials have not yet commented on the specific incident, but the attack underscores the escalating nature of the conflict.
Poland has vowed to increase security measures in response to the drone strikes, signaling a potential escalation in the region. The situation remains under close watch as both sides continue to exchange accusations and actions.
