Seven people have been killed in a Russian attack on a railway depot in Kyiv, Ukraine’s railway chief said. The strike is the latest to hit transport infrastructure in the Ukrainian capital and has left at least seven dead.

At the same time, a fire broke out at a port on the Baltic Sea in Russia after a drone attack, a local governor said. The two incidents underline how the war continues to affect targets in both countries, although the full extent of the damage has not yet been confirmed.

HBL reported that the situation remains fluid. More details are expected as authorities release further information about both the Kyiv strike and the fire at the port.
