Russian drone strike on Dnipro station kills 13, Zelenskiy says

A Russian drone strike on a railway station in Dnipro, Ukraine's third-largest city, killed at least 13 civilians and injured 10 more on Thursday, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The attack occurred as two scheduled trains were waiting for passengers at the platform. Zelenskiy condemned the strike, linking it to recent sanctions relief on Russian oligarchs and the energy sector, and called for decisive action from America and Europe. Ukraine's state railway company Ukrzaliznytsia reported that people were waiting for a train to Zaporizhzhya when the attack happened. Russian strikes have damaged 533 locomotives and target railway infrastructure daily, the company said. The attack echoes an April 2022 strike on Kramatorsk station that killed over 60 people during evacuation efforts.
