Diplomatic Train Near Border Hit by Drone | Perth News
Description
A Russian drone struck a train just two kilometers from the Ukraine-Poland border—right after a high-profile diplomatic train carrying former UK PM Boris Johnson and ex-Swedish PM Carl Bildt had passed through safely. Ukraine’s rail operator suspects the attack was aimed at the diplomatic train, which had left ahead of schedule. No injuries occurred as the targeted train was evacuated. Johnson condemned it as a “random and senseless” attack, questioning why Russia would target a stationary train near Poland. Just before this, another drone hit a truck near the border, briefly shutting down a crossing. Russia claims its strikes target military supply routes into western Ukraine. The incident underscores how the war continues to disrupt civilian infrastructure and international transit—even as top officials travel through the region.
