Nothing is mentioned about the difference in gauge.
Mukacheve can be reached on 1435mm. Hungarian Railways MAV used to run trains there until the outbreak of war.
Mostyska-2 is also connected to 1435mm.
But if you want to run through coaches from Kyiv to Germany you need rolling stock suitable for 1435 and 1524mm.
