Russia hits Ukrainian-Polish border area, Kyiv says
- On Sunday, September 13, a Russian drone strike hit the locomotive of a Kyiv-Warsaw passenger train near the Yahodyn-Dorohusk border crossing, occurring two kilometers from Poland. State rail operator Ukrzaliznytsia confirmed the bombardment also ignited a fire at a nearby filling station.
- During the air alert, State Border Guard Service personnel suspended crossing operations and sheltered travelers at the checkpoint. The Yahodyn crossing later resumed normal processing once the immediate threat subsided.
- Describing the strikes as Russian terror "knocking directly at the doors of the EU and NATO," Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the escalation. Sybiha urged partners to impose broader sanctions on Russia's military-industrial complex.
- Russian strikes hit Odesa, Ternopil, and Konotop on Sunday, injuring at least 12 people and damaging a high-rise, botanical garden, and rail depot. These attacks align with an escalating campaign against fuel networks following deadly strikes in Kyiv.
- The border assault marks a geographic expansion in Russia's sustained aerial campaign targeting transportation corridors and energy networks. Earlier in the week, Russian strikes targeted four passenger trains across Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv regions over a 48-hour span, killing three.
