Russian Drone Kills 13 to 15 at Ukraine Rail Platform

I'll be straight with you, because this one deserves it. A Russian drone struck a passenger train platform in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro on Thursday, and at least 13 to 15 people were killed, according to differing reports. The exact toll is still unsettled. Those were people waiting on a train, going about an ordinary day, and our prayers are with the families who are grieving tonight.

There was a measure of relief elsewhere in the same war. Washington Examiner reports that hundreds of civilians were evacuated from the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky under a temporary ceasefire that First Lady Melania Trump helped broker. Just the News reports they reached Ukrainian-controlled territory on Saturday. Organizers have not confirmed how many were brought out.

A drone hitting a train platform is a reminder of who started this war and who keeps civilians in the crosshairs. Getting even a few hundred families out alive is worth the effort.
