Russian drones strike passenger train near Kherson, injuring railway worker
Russian forces attacked a passenger train heading to Kherson with Shahed drones, damaging two locomotives and injuring a 55-year-old female railway worker, according to Kherson region head Oleksandr Prokudin. The woman was hospitalized in moderate condition with shrapnel wounds to her arm, a concussion, and a closed head injury. Ukrainian authorities and international organizations classify such strikes on civilian infrastructure as Russian war crimes. Russian officials deny targeting civilian infrastructure, while Ukrainian lawyers and researchers argue Moscow's actions during the full-scale war may constitute genocide under the 1948 UN Convention, citing deliberate attacks on life-support systems and forced deportations of children.
