Ukraine strikes another bridge in Russia's Kursk region, says its air force

Ukrainian forces have struck another bridge in Russia's Kursk region as they seek to disrupt Moscow's combat operations in the area, Ukraine's air force said on Sunday.

"Minus one more bridge. The Air Force aviation continues to deprive the enemy of logistical capabilities with precision air strikes," Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk said, publishing a video of the attack.

Ukrainian forces said they thwarted a Russian missile attack on the capital Kyiv where air raid sirens sounded before dawn today.

"This is the third ballistic missile attack on the capital in August with a clear interval of six days between each attack," the Kyiv City Military Administration posted on Telegram after the early morning barrage.

Simultaneous to the missile attack, drones were spotted heading to Kyiv.

"All enemy drones were destroyed far outside the city," it added.
