Russian drones, missiles hit railway hub near Ukraine's capital
A railway hub near Kyiv was attacked during a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack that damaged the depot and railway carriages, Ukrainian state railway company Ukrzaliznytsia said on Saturday.
The railway did not report any casualties from the overnight attack in the town of Fastiv.
Russia has intensified its attacks on Ukraine's energy sector and infrastructure in recent weeks, targeting power stations and railway hubs.
'Russia continues to disregard any peace efforts and instead strikes critical civilian infrastructure, including our energy system and railways,' Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said on X.
'This shows that no decisions to strengthen Ukraine and raise pressure on Russia can be delayed. And especially not under the pretext of peace process,' he added.
Emergency services reported a fire and destruction on the territory of the railway station and depot but gave no more details. The report also cited an attack on infrastructure in the Chernihiv region.
The Russian Defence Ministry said its forces launched a 'massive strike' overnight in response to what it called Ukrainian attacks on civilian targets.
