Details: On the Kharkiv-Uzhhorod train, one passenger was cut by glass, she was helped on the spot.
The crew of the freight train was injured: the driver and his assistant were hospitalized.

Therefore, the Kharkiv-Uzhgorod train will follow with a significant delay, it was taken to a nearby station and is being rerouted via a detour route.
