Europa ziet in Russische aanval op passagierstrein bij de Oekraïens-Poolse grens bewijs van verdere escalatie. ‘Het doel van Rusland is angst zaaien’

On Sunday morning, a Russian drone attacked a passenger train near the Ukrainian-Polish border. European officials view the strike as evidence of further escalation in the ongoing conflict, noting that it follows a pattern of increasing Russian attacks observed since this summer.

According to European assessments, the apparent target of the strike was diplomatic. Observers and analysts have concluded that the overarching objective of the operation was to sow fear.
