Russian troops attacked railway infrastructure with strike drones again tonight, August 7, according to Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, chair of Ukrzaliznytsia.
"Another night... Another night of massive Shahed drone attacks on civilian railway infrastructure. This time – Prydniprovka," Pertsovskyi says.
According to him, the security measures introduced at Ukrzaliznytsia worked – all employees on duty moved to shelters in advance and were not injured.
"We will restore the infrastructure and equipment after the damage. We are not stopping traffic in any way — it will not be possible to sow panic or despair," he adds.
