Russia hits major Kyiv bridge, logistics hub in latest attack – POLITICO

Russia struck a key bridge in Kyiv connecting the left and right bank of the Dnipro river overnight Saturday, as Moscow steps up its aerial campaign against Ukraine.

Traffic was suspended on the capital’s Northern Bridge and emergency services were deployed to the scene amid damage to the road and trolleybus cables on the crossing, Kyiv major Vitaly Klitschko said on Saturday. Around 500,000 people commute from the Dnipro’s left bank to the river’s right bank daily, with eight bridges connecting the two sides in total.

That follows several similar attacks by drones on the Southern Bridge in Kyiv in recent days, forcing the temporary suspension of vehicle movement and huge traffic jams.
