Russia again attacks regional diesel train in Sumy region, casualties reported – Ukrzaliznytsia

Russia struck a regional diesel train in Sumy region again, with passengers evacuated after the threat was detected in advance, though some passengers sustained shrapnel wounds and were given first aid by the train crew on site before medics arrived, Ukrzaliznytsia (UZ) board chairman Oleksandr Pertsovsky said Tuesday.

On September 8, Russian attacks across Ukraine resulted in at least five deaths and 63 injuries, marking the end of a brief ceasefire during U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner's visit. President Volodymyr Zelensky warned of continued war, attributing the intense attacks to Russian intent. Kyiv suffered three fatalities and 19 injuries as residential buildings, a school, and warehouses were damaged.

In Donetsk Oblast, two people were killed and 10 injured, while in Kherson Oblast, one person died and 13 were hurt. In Odesa Oblast, 12 people were injured, with a 65-year-old man hospitalized. Governor Olekha Kiper reported a Russian drone strike in Kharkiv Oblast, injuring three men aged 58, 54, and 48. In Sumy Oblast, a 65-year-old man was hurt by a drone attack. The assaults persisted, with a Kyiv-Sumy train struck twice by Russian drones without casualties.
