Russian President Vladimir Putin has retaliated by blowing up the Kerch Bridge in Ukraine within 48 hours. Russia has been launching missile attacks on Ukraine since Monday morning. Parkovy Bridge in Ukraine has also collapsed in these explosions. The bridge was built for pedestrians.
Indeed, on Saturday, Ukraine blew up the Kerch railway bridge connecting Russia to Crimea. According to media reports, the bridge exploded at 6 am on Saturday, killing three people. The bridge was seen as a symbol of Russia's occupation of Crimea. Putin has since attacked the Ukrainian capital again.
Such an attack on Ukraine after 7 months
At the start of the war in late February, Russia launched a major missile attack on the Ukrainian capital of Kiev. However, in April, Russia began withdrawing its troops from Kyiv following heavy clashes between the Kiev army and civilians. Now once again Russia has started attacking Kiev. Russian rockets have been bombarding Kiev since Monday morning.
Roads, vehicles, children's parks… there are craters from rocket explosions everywhere you look. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the attack killed several people and injured many others. Plumes of smoke can be seen billowing from many areas of Kyiv. In addition to Kyiv, explosions also occurred in the cities of Lviv, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, Dnipro and Ternopil.
Ukrainian President Zelensky shared a video of the explosion on Telegram, saying it was the 229th day of the war. On day 229, Russia wants to destroy us completely and erase our name from the face of the earth. Wants to exterminate people sleeping in their homes in Zaporizhzhya, kill people going to work in Kiev and Dnipro.
