Shortly after Boris Johnson and other European security officials left a train near the Ukraine-Poland border, it was struck by a Russian drone. The incident occurred at Yahodyn, targeting the train's engine, with no reported casualties. All passengers had already been evacuated prior to the attack. The incident came shortly after Johnson and the European officials had passed through the same area on a different train, bound for a conference in Kyiv.
The Ukrainian state railway company suggested the drone's target may have been the diplomatic train, which had left the station early due to threat of Russian strikes. Former CIA chief David Petraeus was also reported to have been on board another train at the time of the attack. Ukrainian and Polish authorities stated the drone struck 2km from the Polish border.
