Russia Says It Hit Kyiv Bridge, 2 Vessels in Black Sea
Russia's military said it targeted a route Kyiv used to transport troops and military cargo.
The Moscow Times reports that Russia has struck the Northern bridge over the Dnipro river in Kyiv, targeting a route used for transporting troops and military cargo. Additionally, the Russian Defense Ministry announced that two dry cargo vessels carrying military equipment to the port of Odesa in the Black Sea were also hit. This comes after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky indicated that Kyiv would escalate attacks on Russian oil refineries.
The Russian military has also claimed to have intensified its strikes on Ukraine, with air defense forces intercepting and destroying 559 Ukrainian drones over multiple regions and the Azov and Black seas. However, the claims made by both sides of the conflict remain unverified by Reuters.
