Following a drone attack on a railway line in the Voronezh region, train services were disrupted but have since resumed. The attack caused a power outage in the contact network, which forced the temporary halt of train operations while repairs were conducted.
Three passenger trains originating from Saint Petersburg and Moscow were delayed as a result of the incident. Previously, five passengers were injured in a drone attack on a train in the Voronezh region, heightening concerns about safety in the area. Passengers affected by the current delays have been informed of their expected arrival times as operations stabilize.
Russian Railways (RZD) reported the resumption of train services on Monday. The company is currently taking measures to bring delayed trains back to schedule and is working to repair the damaged contact network. While the broader rail network remains affected, the immediate halt caused by the power outage has been addressed.
