Since the beginning of July, Russian 'shaheds' have been carrying out massive attacks on key railway junction stations throughout Ukraine. This was reported by the head of the board of JSC 'Ukrzaliznytsia', Oleksandr Pertsovskyi.



'Shaheds' are massively attacking our key stations. Examples include attacks on the Lozova station, the Synelnykove station, and the Koziatyn station. That is, they are hitting key stations practically all over the country,' emphasized Pertsovskyi.


He also noted that the attacks are aimed at destroying energy substations, locomotive depots, and passenger terminals in order to completely ruin the railway hubs.



'The enemy strikes in such a way that, essentially, the hub is destroyed,' added the head of Ukrzaliznytsia.


Oleksandr Pertsovskyi also expressed gratitude to the company's employees for their heroism in restoring damaged infrastructure during ongoing attacks.



'Even when key junction stations are under attack, we do not cancel trains. We find ways to adjust the schedule, but we always go. And this is noted by Ukrainians. They thank the railway workers for such resilience,' emphasized Pertsovskyi.
