Railworkers continue to work despite shelling.
Lozova has repeatedly been hit due to its location near the front line. The station is an important transport hub in Kharkiv region, so the Russians regularly try to disrupt railway work here, attacking locomotives, carriages, and infrastructure.
Despite the constant threat, Ukrzaliznytsia employees continue to ensure train movement even on the most dangerous routes. The company has repeatedly stressed that shelters at stations are prepared in advance, and personnel and passengers are warned about heightened danger before the attack.
