Russian forces strike Kyiv's Pivdeni Bridge again, disrupting traffic and metro

The Russian military attacked the Pivdeni Bridge in Kyiv again on Friday, closing the key crossing over the Dnipro River and disrupting traffic and metro service in the Ukrainian capital. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed the strike on Telegram, stating the bridge is closed to transit. The Pivdeni Bridge was also hit multiple times on Thursday, and closures of it and two other bridges have caused major traffic congestion. The attacks also affect a metro line crossing the Dnipro. Klitschko met with security and emergency officials to address the strikes and will propose measures to the central government to maintain connectivity between the city's two banks.
