Ukraine’s rail operator suspects the strike was meant for the diplomatic convoy, as schedules were altered to avoid Russian threats. The incident, just two kilometers from NATO territory, follows a truck strike earlier that day and underscores Russia’s targeting of European supply routes. Meanwhile, Ukraine retaliates with strikes on Russian fuel trucks near Zaporizhzhia’s nuclear plant and a refinery in Krasnodar, while Russian drones hit civilian targets in Nizhnekamsk, killing two. The conflict is spiraling into long-range strikes across borders, intensifying the war’s global reach. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
