Russian forces have destroyed bridges on the west bank of the Dnieper River in Ukraine’s southern Kherson region to slow a continuing Ukrainian advance, as it was reported that one of the most prominent Russian-installed officials had been killed in a car crash.
As the Ukrainian president, Volodomyr Zelenskiy, described “intense fighting” on the southern frontline, Ukrainian troops were reported to have retaken a number of settlements.
