Russian strikes hit second major Kyiv bridge, injuring two. The Northern Bridge over the Dnipro River was targeted in an attack, damaging road surface and trolleybus wires. Traffic across the bridge is currently blocked, causing disruptions in the capital.

The attack follows previous strikes on the Southern Bridge, with Russian forces targeting critical infrastructure in Kyiv. The strikes come as Moscow intensifies its attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure, with the city's mayor warning of ongoing threats.

The Russian military has continued to target Kyiv's bridges, which are vital for connecting the city's western and eastern banks. Experts warn that repeated attacks could weaken the structures, potentially leading to closures. The strikes highlight the ongoing conflict's impact on Ukraine's critical infrastructure.
