is reported by 'Ukrzaliznytsia'.

According to preliminary data, there are no casualties among workers and passengers, as staff timely moved to shelters.
The transport infrastructure remains one of the main targets of Russia's attacks. Since the beginning of the invasion, 'Ukrzaliznytsia'
has repeatedly been subjected to missile attacks, but the railway workers consistently ensure the movement of trains and the evacuation of people. The company emphasizes that it continues to operate despite threats and promptly restores damaged sections.
This incident again shows how important the railway network is for Ukraine during the conflict. 'Ukrzaliznytsia' continues to work to ensure passenger safety and maintain transport accessibility under difficult conditions. Thus, despite external threats, the state company demonstrates its resilience and readiness for any challenges.
