Russia strikes Ukrainian railways
Strikes on railway infrastructure are no coincidence. As reported by RBC-Ukraine, as early as the beginning of April, Russian propaganda spread a false claim that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were allegedly using civilian trains for military purposes.
Ukraine's Center for Countering Disinformation explains that this was an attempt to justify the systematic strikes on the railway, which in reality transports ordinary passengers.
Meanwhile, Russian strikes on the Ukrainian railway continue. On April 13, as reported by RBC-Ukraine, Russia struck railway infrastructure in the Dnipropetrovsk region. A commuter train was stopped in time, and about 500 passengers were evacuated.
After that, a drone struck near the locomotive of a freight train. No one was injured thanks solely to the quick response of railway workers.
