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

The attack hit a 25-story apartment building and a school, while more than 100 drones forced traffic restrictions on three Dnipro crossings, 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.
