Russian drone strike kills 14 at Dnipro railway station

bfmtv.com (French) —

At least 14 people were killed Thursday in a Russian drone strike on a railway station platform in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, prompting international condemnation. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported the death toll from the "horrible attack," while French President Emmanuel Macron expressed emotion and regretted that Russia continues to "bet on escalation" by targeting civilians. The strike hit a platform where a train to Zaporizhzhia was stopped, with people present despite an air raid warning. Russia has targeted Ukrainian trains and stations since its full-scale invasion began in February 2022, leading to thousands of monthly train evacuations. Other strikes Thursday killed five more people across Ukraine, as Zelensky criticized recent Western sanctions relief for Russia.
