Russian Drone Strike Hits Passenger Train in Kramatorsk, Prompting Condemnation from Ukrainian President and Denial from Russian Military

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has strongly condemned a deadly Russian drone strike on a passenger train in the city of Kramatorsk on Wednesday. The attack resulted in multiple casualties and widespread destruction.

The Russian military has claimed that they were targeting a military base near the train station in Kramatorsk and have denied intentionally striking the passenger train. They stated that the drone strike was aimed at military infrastructure and not civilians.

President Zelensky, on the other hand, has accused Russia of deliberately attacking the passenger train, describing it as a “barbaric act of terrorism”. He called for an immediate international investigation into the incident and demanded that those responsible are held accountable for their actions.

The attack comes amidst escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine, with Russian forces amassing along the Ukrainian border and in Crimea. The international community has expressed deep concerns over the situation, with many calling for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.

The deadly drone strike on the passenger train has further heightened tensions in the region and raised fears of a full-scale war breaking out between the two countries.

Both Russia and Ukraine have a long history of conflict and territorial disputes, with the situation exacerbated by Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014 and continued support for separatist rebels in Eastern Ukraine.

The global community is closely monitoring the developments in the region and urging both sides to exercise restraint and seek a diplomatic solution to the crisis.
