Watch: Why a Russian strike on train near Ukraine-Poland border could mark an escalation
A Russian drone struck a train near the Ukraine-Poland border shortly after former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and top European security officials had passed through. No casualties were reported after the strike at Yahodyn, which hit the train’s engine. All the passengers had been evacuated, according to Ukrainian authorities.
Johnson and other European national security advisers, including the UK’s Jonathan Powell, had passed along the same line on a different train on their way back from a conference in Kyiv.
