On the morning of June 14, the Russian military launched strikes against railway infrastructure in the Kharkiv region, according to Ukraine’s Ministry of Communities and Territories Development.
The ministry reported that drones were used to attack the Lozova station, resulting in damage to locomotives. Both the train driver and the assistant sustained injuries and received necessary medical care.
Despite the ongoing attacks, railway workers continue to fulfill their duties, ensuring stable transportation links, the ministry emphasized.
Russian military forces routinely target Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure using various types of weaponry, including drones, missiles, and multiple launch rocket systems. These actions have been classified by Ukrainian authorities and international organizations as war crimes, highlighting their targeted nature.
Attacks on critical infrastructure, including energy, healthcare, and water supply systems, are viewed as attempts to deprive civilians of essential services, raising concerns about potential genocidal actions.
The Russian leadership denies accusations that its military deliberately targets civilian infrastructure, asserting that such claims are unfounded.
Recent drone strikes by Russian forces on railway infrastructure in Kharkiv have resulted in injuries and damage, highlighting ongoing attacks on civilian targets. Ukrainian authorities classify these actions as war crimes, reflecting a broader pattern of targeting essential services.
