Russia struck Kyiv’s Northern Bridge as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz made a surprise visit to the Ukrainian capital. The attack came after Moscow warned foreign nationals and diplomats to leave Kyiv ahead of intensified strikes. President Volodymyr Zelensky, meanwhile, has vowed to step up attacks on Russian oil refineries in response to Moscow’s campaign against Ukrainian infrastructure. Russia has since warned that strikes on Ukrainian military, defence-industrial and related infrastructure will be intensified.
