Russia Strikes Kyiv Bridges, Renews Call for Foreigners to Leave

Russia has renewed its call for diplomats and foreign nationals to leave Kyiv as strikes on bridges and vital infrastructure cause deaths and traffic chaos in the Ukrainian capital.

The appeal comes amid an escalation in attacks on the city. Its timing carries an implicit warning as the strikes continue, although the information provided does not specify what further action Moscow may take.

Bridges and essential facilities have been hit, disrupting movement across Kyiv. Damage to transport links has compounded the turmoil facing residents as they navigate the capital.

The attacks have left people dead, but no casualty figure was provided. The extent of the damage to the bridges and other infrastructure also remains unspecified.

Moscow’s renewed departure call adds to the uncertainty for diplomats and other foreigners still in Kyiv, while residents face the immediate consequences of the strikes.
