5 killed in Ukraine after Russian drone hits passenger train

Five people were killed after a Russian drone hit a Ukrainian passenger train during an overnight assault, which President Volodymyr Zelensky slammed as a blatant “act of terrorism.”

The train was transporting more than 200 people in the Kharkiv region when a Russian drone struck a wagon, with two other UAVs hitting the area alongside it.

Harrowing video and images of the aftermath show that at least two train carriages were destroyed and set ablaze by the impacts, with Ukrainian prosecutors saying that the fragments of five bodies were found at the scene of the strike.
