Only a few minutes before the strike, a special train carrying foreign politicians had passed along the same route. Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was traveling on it, along with other European officials and political advisors. Following the attack, evacuation was reportedly ordered for both the hit passenger train and the nearby special train. hnonline.sk ↗

Johnson, together with the other participants, had been in Kyiv, where he took part in talks about possible peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia. The attack struck the railway line shortly after the special train, in which the politicians were traveling from the Ukrainian capital toward Poland, had passed. forum24.cz ↗
