Former President Donald Trump on Sunday urged Ukraine to cease its attacks on Russian diesel infrastructure, claiming that such strikes are contributing to a worldwide diesel shortage and escalating fuel prices. Trump made these remarks while visiting his golf club in Ireland, suggesting that Ukraine should focus on other targets instead of diesel supplies.
Concurrently, on the same day, Russia reportedly launched an attack targeting a passenger train near Ukraine's border with Poland. A drone struck the locomotive of a Kyiv-Warsaw passenger train approximately two kilometers from the Polish border at the Yahodyn crossing point. Although there were no casualties reported on the train due to timely evacuation, the attack also damaged a nearby gas station and set several trucks on fire. Ukrainian and Polish officials condemned the incident as an escalation of the conflict.
