Russian forces launched strikes near the Yahodyn-Dorohusk border crossing along Ukraine’s western border with Poland on Sunday morning, Sept. 13, damaging a filling station and hitting the locomotive of a passenger train en route to Warsaw. The bombardment struck within two kilometers of the Polish border in the Volyn region, sparking a sharp diplomatic warning from Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, who described the cross-border escalation as Russian terror “knocking directly at the doors of the EU and NATO.”JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. According to Volyn Customs spokeswoman Valentyna Chernysh, falling munitions ignited a blaze at a commercial gas station complex and engulfed several parked freight trucks nearby. State Border Guard Service (DPSU) spokesman Andriy Demchenko confirmed that incoming fire did not directly hit the border inspection infrastructure itself, though operations at the Yahodyn crossing were temporarily halted during the air raid alert while personnel and travelers sheltered. The crossing subsequently resumed normal processing operations once the immediate threat subsided. Concurrently, state rail operator Ukrzaliznytsia reported that Russian munitions struck the locomotive of a passenger train traveling from Kyiv to Warsaw approximately two kilometers from the Polish border. Rail monitoring teams detected the incoming threat and issued an advance warning to the crew, averting casualties among passengers and rail staff.
