A Ukrainian drone struck the Liski railway station in Russia’s Voronezh region overnight, injuring a track technician and damaging a power line, regional governor Alexander Gusev said on social media. Train services were delayed but had returned to schedule by Sunday morning. The station, one of the main hubs on the South-Eastern Railway, lies about 160 kilometres from the Ukrainian border. Russia’s Defence Ministry said air-defence units shot down nine drones over Voronezh and a total of 46 across western Russia during the night. Later in the day, the ministry raised its estimate, claiming that 300 Ukrainian drones had been intercepted over the previous 24 hours and that Russian forces had struck storage sites for Ukraine’s Sapsan missiles. The figures could not be independently verified, and Kyiv has not commented on the incidents. According to Ukrainian officials, the Liski strike is the 16th attack on Russian rail infrastructure in the past month, underscoring Kyiv’s efforts to disrupt logistics supporting Moscow’s war effort. The intensifying exchange of drone and missile attacks comes amid stalled frontline advances and continued diplomatic deadlock.
