MOSCOW, October 6 – RIA Novosti. Strikes by the Russian Armed Forces on bridges threaten to divide Ukraine into two parts, Verkhovna Rada deputy Anna Skorokhod said in an interview with the MayakUA YouTube channel.
“The possibility that the two banks will be torn apart naturally exists,” she said.
The deputy added that due to attacks by the Russian military on bridges across the Dnieper, it is already difficult to move from the right bank of the river to the left and vice versa.
The day before yesterday, after the attack, the Kyiv authorities restricted traffic on three bridges across the Dnieper, which led to a transport collapse. The mayor of the capital, Vitaliy Klitschko, called the situation dramatic and warned that it would no longer be possible to live a normal life, as in peacetime. Against this background, the Insider publication reported that Kiev residents are leaving the city en masse.
