Russian terrorists struck a locomotive and passenger cars of a train in the Zaporizhzhia region
The Russian terrorist army launched a double strike against a locomotive and passenger cars of a train in the Zaporizhzhia region. According to preliminary reports, no one was injured.
“Thanks to the work of the monitoring group, the professional actions of the railroad workers, and the timely response, all passengers and employees were quickly evacuated to a safe location. According to preliminary information, no one was injured,” said Kalashnik, Minister of Recovery, Infrastructure, and Transport.
He noted that Russia is deliberately continuing to target civilian infrastructure in an attempt to intimidate people and disrupt the transportation system. However, the Ukrainian railway continues to operate, ensuring uninterrupted service and fulfilling its critically important mission even amid constant attacks.
“The Ministry of Recovery, Infrastructure, and Transport, together with the Ministry of Defense and Ukrzaliznytsia, is constantly working to strengthen the resilience of rail transport even under such difficult conditions,” Kalashnik said.
