Russian drone strikes damage second major bridge in Kyiv

A Russian drone hit the Northern Bridge in Kyiv early on Saturday morning. The attack damaged the road surface and knocked out trolleybus wires above the bridge. Mayor Vitali Klitschko said traffic between the left and right banks of the city was blocked after the strike. Emergency services went to the scene. This was the second major bridge in Kyiv to be hit in recent days. Russian forces had already struck the Southern Bridge several times since Thursday. Before Thursday, neither bridge had been attacked. Both bridges connect the eastern and western parts of the capital, so the strikes are causing serious disruption for people travelling across the city.
