Russia hits Ukrainian train shortly after Boris Johnson leaves station
A Russian drone struck a train near Ukraine-Poland border, shortly after Former UK PM Boris Johnson left the station.
A Ukrainian drone strike on September 14 reportedly caused fires and explosions in the Russian city of Sochi, located around 650 to 700 kilometers from the Ukrainian border in Russia's Krasnodar Krai region. Footage from residents of Sochi showed large explosions lighting up the night sky and at least one significant fire burning in the city.
Sochi Mayor Anatoly Pakhomov confirmed that Russian air defense systems were active. However, the Kyiv Independent was unable to independently verify the latest reports or the extent of the damage. Ukraine's military has not yet commented on the reported attack. This follows a series of recent Ukrainian attacks on Sochi, including a Ukrainian sea drone damaging a beach promenade on September 10 and Ukrainian forces striking a Russian naval vessel and oil depot on September 4.
President Volodymyr Zelensky had warned airlines, insurers, and foreign governments on September 1 that Russian airspace would be effectively closed due to Ukrainian drones.
