 “As a result of a Russian attack on the Sumy region, a crossing guard was wounded. The railroad worker was taken to the hospital with a shoulder injury and provided with all the necessary assistance,” the statement said. 

In addition, the attack damaged the railway infrastructure, including power supply elements and tracks.
