Russia Strikes Civilian Train in Ukraine, Killing Five, in Attack Zelensky Calls Terrorism
A Russian drone strike on a civilian train in northeastern Ukraine resulted in at least five fatalities, according to President Zelensky, who labeled the attack an act of terrorism. The train was carrying nearly 300 passengers, many of whom were traveling to visit soldiers on the front lines. While direct strikes on passenger trains are unusual, this attack caused significant damage and casualties, leading to temporary train service reductions in the region. The attack prompted international condemnation, including a pledge of support from French President Emmanuel Macron.
