In a significant development, Ukrainian air forces have demolished another strategic bridge over the Seym River in Russia’s Kursk region, targeting the supply capabilities of Russian forces. Ukrainian Commander Mykola Oleshchuk announced the successful strike on Sunday.
Oleshchuk shared a video via Telegram showing a rising cloud from the explosion and parts of the bridge in ruins. This marks the second attack on such infrastructure since Friday, severely impacting Russia's ability to supply its forces in the region.
Russia has condemned the action as a major provocation, vowing a 'worthy response.' With this strike, Ukraine's forces have now seized over 80 settlements across more than 1,150 square km since launching a surprise offensive on August 6.
