Russian air strikes kill one, restrict traffic across Dnipro River in Kyiv

Traffic across three Dnipro crossings was suspended as repeated drone hits damaged the bridge and nearby infrastructure, officials said.

  • On Friday, Russian air strikes again hit the Southern Bridge in Kyiv, Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported on Telegram. Thursday's drone attacks smashed into a school and the same bridge, triggering fires across the capital.
  • Moscow continues its nearly daily, around-the-clock strikes on Ukraine, increasingly targeting vital transport links across the Dnipro River. These attacks aim to pressure the capital's infrastructure and population.
  • Authorities in Kyiv closed traffic on the Southern Bridge and the Paton Bridge in both directions following the damage. Officials are redirecting transport via alternative routes to mitigate disruption.
  • President Vladimir Putin claimed Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries have cost Russia 1% of its gross domestic product. Citizens are forming long lines to refill car tanks amid the damage.
  • Journalist Maryna Danyliuk-Yarmolaieva noted that fears over transport links between the banks of the Dnipro have become a strategic tool for pressuring Ukrainians. Protecting these rear areas remains a critical challenge for the nation.
