The Odesa-Zaporizhzhia train was damaged as a result of a Russian missile strike on the Dnipropetrovsk region.

This was reported by Ukrzaliznytsia, according to Ukrinform.

“As a result of Russia's terrorist strike on the Dnipropetrovsk region, train No. 52 Odesa-Zaporizhzhia was damaged,” the report said.

Rescue workers and ambulance crews quickly arrived at the scene.

It is noted that passengers were quickly taken to shelters, as the air raid alert in the region continues.

Ukrzaliznytsia is preparing replacement rolling stock in Dnipro to transfer passengers and deliver them to Zaporizhzhia.
