Russian Drone Strikes Train in Ukraine as Poland Reacts

In September 2026, a Russian drone struck a train in Ukraine shortly after former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson had left it. The strike occurred near Ukraine's border with Poland, prompting Polish officials to scramble security chiefs and consider military drills near Kaliningrad to draw Russian troops away from Ukraine. US President Donald Trump said Kiev and Moscow had agreed not to strike energy infrastructure.

A Polish minister proposed drills near Kaliningrad to pull Russian forces from Ukraine. The incident raised questions about targeting, as the drone hit minutes after Johnson's departure. Canada has shifted from peacekeeping to helping Ukraine build drones, according to one report.
