Online services of Ukraine's state-owned railway Ukrzaliznytsia are not working due to a technical failure, the company said on Sunday, providing no additional details.

"Ticket sales via the app and website, online ordering services and reference services are temporarily not working," the company said on Telegram messenger.

After the Russian invasion in 2022 and the closure of airspace over Ukraine, trains became the main mode of transportation for domestic and international passengers.

The railway company did not specify what caused the technical failure. Ukrainian state authorities have often blamed Russian hackers for outages of state and private online services since the beginning of the war.
