16 August 2025

This morning, August 16, an incident was reported at a railway station in Odesa by a dispatcher.

Initial reports suggest that a man climbed onto the roof of a freight train and was electrocuted.

Emergency medical services rushed the victim to the hospital in critical condition.

Police are currently on the scene. They are investigating the circumstances of the incident and the identity of the victim. Legal qualifications regarding the case are also being considered.

We once again urge citizens to exercise caution while on the railway. Trains, carriages, and other objects may carry high voltage. Electric shock can occur not only through direct contact but also from a distance.
