On September 13, Russian forces launched strikes near the Yahodyn-Dorohusk border crossing along Ukraine's western border with Poland, damaging a filling station and hitting a passenger train en route to Warsaw. The attack occurred within two kilometers of the Polish border in the Volyn region, prompting Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha to issue a strong warning.

The border assault marks an expansion in Russia's aerial campaign targeting Ukraine's transportation corridors and energy distribution networks.
