KYIV -- On a snowy night in early December, 40 ambulances lined up outside the central railway station in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv. There were no signs of passengers in the station, as the entrances had been sealed off. Soon a blue train quietly pulled in, carrying wounded troops from the front.
One after another, severely injured soldiers on stretchers were transferred to the ambulances. All lights had been turned off to escape Russian detection. The train's schedule had been kept secret, but the tension was palpable.
