Russia has delivered a major blow to Ukraine by striking a key military crossing in the Kupyansk region. A Russian airstrike destroyed a crucial bridge over the Oskol River, which had been actively used by Ukrainian forces for troop and supply movements. The attack is seen as direct retaliation for recent Ukrainian bombings of bridges inside Russian territory. Moscow described the strike as a justified response to Kyiv’s sabotage efforts. The loss of the crossing could significantly disrupt Ukraine’s operations in the eastern front. Russia has warned that further attacks on its territory will trigger more retaliatory strikes.
