Russian drones damage railway facilities in Lutsk and Fastiv

Russian drones struck railway facilities overnight in two Ukrainian cities, Lutsk and Fastiv, according to footage that has circulated showing the attacks.

In both locations, railway staff managed to evacuate passengers from the affected areas before the strikes caused harm, meaning no injuries have been reported. This points to timely warning and evacuation procedures being carried out at the affected stations.

Possible disruption to services

While there were no casualties, the strikes caused damage to railway infrastructure that could affect train operations. Ukrainian rail authorities have indicated that train schedules may change in the coming days as the extent of the damage is assessed and repairs are carried out.

Railway infrastructure has repeatedly been targeted by Russian strikes throughout the war, given its importance for both civilian transport and military logistics. The full scope of the damage from these latest strikes has not yet been detailed, but the situation is being monitored.
