A Russian drone carried out a targeted attack on a commuter electric train in Sumy this morning. At the time of the Russian strike, the train was stopped on the station platform, according to Oleh Hryhorov, head of the Regional Military Administration, and Ukrainian Railways.
The Russians continue to attack civilian transport and railway infrastructure in the Sumy region.
"At the time of the Russian strike, the train was on the platform at the railway station. The train crew was in a shelter. Neither passengers nor railway workers were injured," Ukrainian Railways says.
"I urge residents of the region not to ignore air raid sirens and to follow the instructions of railway workers. People's safety is the most important thing," the Regional Military Administration emphasizes in its statement.
Passengers are also asked to take shelter during air raid alerts.
