Russian strikes on Kyiv have caused major disruption across the Ukrainian capital, forcing the full or partial closure of crossings over the Dnipro River and triggering severe traffic congestion and public transport delays.

Residents described long commutes and growing frustration after Russia hit a key bridge linking the city's east and west banks for the first time since the full-scale invasion began.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the attacks reflect a broader Russian strategy aimed at civilian infrastructure and daily life, while vowing Ukraine would continue strikes on Russian energy targets but not civilians.
