A fresh wave of Russian drone strikes near Ukraine’s border with Poland has triggered a major security alert, with reports of damage to a gas station, trucks catching fire and a Kyiv-Warsaw passenger train being hit. The strikes took place near the Yahodyn-Dorohusk border checkpoint. The locomotive of a passenger train was reportedly attacked around two kilometres from the Polish border, while another reported strike site was around 800 metres from Poland. Preemptive warnings reportedly allowed passengers to take shelter and prevented casualties on the train. Border operations were temporarily disrupted before later resuming.
