Russian Drone Strike Targets Train Near Polish Border
🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
This near-miss on high-profile Western figures shows Russia's willingness to escalate risks that could drag NATO directly into the conflict.
💡 Why it matters
The strike's proximity to a train carrying former Western leaders raises the stakes for NATO's response and could shift public opinion on direct intervention.
A Russian drone struck a train engine near the Poland-Ukraine border shortly after a train carrying Boris Johnson and ex-CIA chief David Petraeus crossed into Poland, according to Ukrainian Railways. No casualties were reported, but Ukraine's foreign minister called the attack.
