On February 28, the Czech Republic will send a train to Ukraine carrying a humanitarian cargo, Ukrzaliznytsia's Telegram channel reported on Sunday.

Nine pairs of trains continue to run daily from the Chop station to Zahony (Hungary, one train consists of 6 wagons)," Ukrzaliznytsia said.

You need to buy tickets for these trains. Boarding trains is carried out in the presence of a ticket and one of the documents:
