Russian strikes hit Kyiv's second major bridge in days
Russian strikes hit Kyiv's Northern Bridge on Saturday, two days after an attack on the Southern Bridge, according to Ukrainian capital's mayor Vitali Klitschko. The road surface and trolleybus cables were damaged, and traffic was cut in one direction across the Dnieper River. This marks the second major Kyiv bridge attacked in recent days. Thursday and Friday drone strikes on the Southern Bridge closed it to traffic, causing massive traffic jams in the city divided by the Dnieper. Since Russia's 2022 invasion, Kyiv has feared attacks on its eight key road and rail bridges, vital to the capital's logistics. Traffic on the Paton and Metro bridges was also restricted Friday, with temporary limits on a fourth bridge, Darnytsky.
