Ukraine claims Russia hit passenger train heading to Warsaw

Jornal de Negócios13 September 2026 at 12:51

Ukraine announced that Russia attacked a passenger train with a drone, with the impact occurring on a locomotive just two kilometers from the border with Poland. The attack was confirmed by the Ukrainian foreign minister, who publicly denounced the incident.

The train was bound for Warsaw, in Poland, showing that the international railway route was directly affected by the attack. The proximity of the attack site to the European border underscores the escalation of the conflict to areas closer to European Union territory.

The attack was claimed by Russia in the context of the ongoing conflict, which has already caused multiple deaths and the destruction of civilian infrastructure in Ukraine. This incident comes at a time when tensions between Russia and NATO member countries continue to increase.

Why this matters

This attack in an area so close to the Polish border — a NATO member country — represents a significant risk of escalation of the conflict, potentially dragging Western allies into the war. The civilian population traveling by train between Ukraine and Poland is directly exposed to these attacks, and the incident may lead to a hardening of the international response to Russian involvement.

Rare snake surprises breeders by having two heads capable of controlling the body equally

A two-headed ball python was born at a breeding facility in Eugene, Oregon (USA), and surprised breeders by demonstrating that both brains can equally control the shared body — something rare, since in most cases of dicephaly one head tends to be dominant. Both heads can drink water, flick their tongues, and react to touch independently, with the body responding to each one. The breeder Justin Stewart, 36 years old, told Creatorzine that he doesn't know if the heads are aware of each other, but stated: "They don't seem to mind it."
