Russian strikes hit Ukraine railways, petrol stations and Black Sea shipping
At least two people were killed and infrastructure damaged after Russian strikes across Ukraine on Sept 23, officials and regional authorities said. Kyiv and surrounding areas saw a petrol station strike that wounded a 42-year-old man who later died, and a railway worker was injured by shrapnel as Ukraine's rail network came under fire. The attacks also hit Black Sea shipping, killing the captain of a cargo vessel near Odesa and affecting an Antigua and Barbuda-flagged ship. Ukrainian and international officials warned the strikes disrupt transport, logistics and commercial shipping, while Russia said it targeted drone production and military cargo facilities.
