What is known?

"Enemy attacks on the capital continue, and the capital’s railway infrastructure is also under fire. As of now: one of our railway workers, returning home from his shift, sustained shrapnel wounds. He is in the hospital, where our people are nearby. He is receiving all necessary medical care," the statement reads.

Pertsovskyi urged people to exercise the utmost caution near railway facilities.

"Stay away from them and take cover at ANY alert level. As a reminder: even at the yellow alert level, passengers may board and disembark only from the underground areas of Central Station; the same applies at Darnytsia Station.

If you miss your train due to security concerns—it’s no problem. We’ll refund 100% of the fare, and you can take the next train. Above all—stay safe.

The consequences of the attacks are being promptly addressed, but we are also evacuating people in the event of repeated threats, so this is affecting the punctuality of train departures from Kyiv. Please check the status updates online on all our platforms," he added.
