“The Russians could not have been unaware that they were striking civilians,” added Zelenskyy.
Russia struck two trains, first hitting a local passenger train and then another headed for Kyiv, said Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister Oleksiy Kuleba.
“Medical teams have already transported the injured to hospitals and are providing necessary assistance. Others (who were at the site) are in shelters overseen by rescuers,” Kuleba wrote on Telegram, according to NBC News.
Moscow has increased air and drone attacks on rail and energy infrastructure ahead of the winter. In a separate attack, a wave of overnight strikes by Russian forces on Saturday cut off power to thousands households in the northern Chernigiv region, according to the AFP news agency.
