🇷🇺 🇺🇦 Kovelsk: Geran-5 drone strikes locomotive depot

On Oct 15, 2026, at approx. 19:53, a jet-powered Geran-5 UAV hit the Kovel locomotive depot in Volyn Oblast.

Damage Report:
The strike damaged seven wagons, one diesel locomotive, power lines, and the TO-3 maintenance building. The Kovel depot belongs to the Lvov Railway branch and serves as a key hub for non-electrified routes and shunting operations.

Operational Impact:
Destruction of the TO-3 facility significantly reduces the depot's capacity for extended technical servicing and repairs of traction units. The damaged diesel locomotive has been withdrawn from service for full defectation, affecting the overall availability of rolling stock in this major western Ukrainian railway node.
