A Russian jet-powered drone struck a crowded platform at the main railway station in Dnipro on Thursday, killing at least 14 people and wounding at least 14 others, Ukrainian officials said. Earlier reports put the death toll at 13.
Ukraine’s state railway operator, Ukrzaliznytsia, said a passenger train bound for Zaporizhzhia was at the platform when the drone hit. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said both a commuter train and a passenger train were standing there. The wounded included an 11-year-old boy, according to Dnipropetrovsk regional head Oleksandr Hanzha. Images released by emergency services showed damaged train cars, bodies on the platform and rescuers carrying victims away.
Russia’s military had not publicly commented on the strike. Moscow has repeatedly attacked Ukraine’s railway network but denies deliberately targeting civilians.
Other Russian attacks on Thursday killed two 15-year-old girls in Chernihiv and three people in Kremenchuk, Ukrainian regional officials said. At least 25 people were reported wounded in Chernihiv. Officials gave differing injury totals for Kremenchuk, ranging from 15 to 28.
The attacks occurred as a six-day humanitarian truce continued in the southern Kherson region to allow aid to reach Russian-occupied Oleshky. Ukraine’s human rights ombudsman, Dmytro Lubinets, said the ceasefire there was holding into its third day.
