Shortly before a Russian drone struck a locomotive at Yahodyn station, a diplomatic train containing security advisers and former European leaders was present at the station. Ukrzaliznytsia disclosed this on Facebook and UATV English. The company stated that another train at the same station at the moment of the attack was carrying David Petraeus, the former CIA director.

The company highlighted the importance of adhering to safety instructions for railway workers, given the ongoing threats against civilian rolling stock.
