In Ukraine, Kyiv, Lviv and other cities have come under intense attack from Russian missile strikes, following Saturday’s explosion at a key bridge linking Russia to Crimea, the Ukrainian territory annexed by Russia in 2014. The blast on the Kerch Bridge — the longest bridge in Europe — collapsed two roadways and reportedly left three people dead. President Vladimir Putin blamed Ukrainian special forces for the the explosion, which he called an “act of terrorism.” Ukrainian officials say retaliatory assaults by Russia killed at least 10 people and struck infrastructure in 12 regions of Ukraine, knocking out electricity and water supplies.
