Another major bridge in Kyiv was hit by a Russian strike early Saturday, according to reports on the war in Ukraine.
The bridge in question is the Pivnichny bridge, located further north of the Ukrainian capital on the Dnipro River. The strike comes after traffic on the Pivdenny bridge had already been suspended on Friday following Russian bombardment.
The targeting of both pieces of infrastructure within just a few days underscores the intensification of strikes aimed at strategic structures in the region around the Ukrainian capital.
No detailed assessment of the damage or potential casualties has been released so far regarding the strike on the Pivnichny bridge.
Ukrainian authorities have yet to clarify the impact of these successive strikes on traffic and logistics in the capital, as the war continues on multiple fronts.
