A Russian drone struck a Kyiv-to-Warsaw passenger train near the Polish border on Sunday (September 13, 2026) but caused no casualties, Ukraine and Poland said, as Moscow steps up attacks in the fifth year of its invasion.

The strike, just two kilometres (1.2 miles) from the Polish border, came days after U.S. envoys visited Kyiv and Moscow, hoping to revive Washington-led talks on ending Europe's worst conflict since World War II, without securing a breakthrough.

NATO member Poland said a second drone struck near a border crossing, prompting Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski to accuse Russian President Vladimir Putin of "escalating" the conflict.
