Senior Ukrainian officials went to Washington on Tuesday to seek American support against Russia, while kyiv has shown his ability to fight an explosive device under a bridge that has become a symbol of Kremlin’s claims on Ukrainian territory.
One day after the talks in Istanbul who made little progress towards the end of the war, now in its fourth year, the SBU security service of Ukraine said that it had taken a road bridge and rails which connects Russia and Crimea under the level of water with explosives. The extent of any damage was not clear.
The bridge is a flagship project by Russian President Vladimir Putin, built after annexed Crimea in Ukraine in 2014, in a precursor to the last conflict.
Kremlin accuses Ukraine of targeting civilians
Kyiv seems determined to show that American president Donald Trump can still fight, despite the number of deaths and growing destruction in the deadliest conflict in Europe since the Second World War.
Ukrainian forces have also targeted the southeast region of Zaporizhzhia and the Kherson region in the south with bombing, which has damaged electricity, leaving at least 700,000 people without electricity, said Russia officials.
Look | Ukraine says that she struck the bridge of Russia in Crimea:
The Ukraine security service says it has struck the Kerch Strait bridge, an important route connecting Russia and the Crimean Peninsula. Reuters checked the location of the video published by the security service by matching the structural elements of the bridge in the video to satellite and files, but could not independently check the date.
The new attacks followed the drone strikes during the weekend on Russian military aerodromes, some of which sheltered long-range nuclear rage bombers.
Ukraine’s success in the strike deep in Russia aroused calls from certain Russian military bloggers for a severe response.
The Russian State inquiry committee accused Ukraine on Tuesday of “terrorism acts” By exploding two railway bridges in Russia during the weekend.
The attacks were to target hundreds of civilians, said the Telegram committee. He said seven people were killed and 113 injured, including children, when two trains crashed in the Kursk and Bryansk regions in Russia following attacks.

Ukraine officials are looking for support, Russian sanctions
Meanwhile, a Russian artillery strike in Sumy killed three people on Tuesday and wounded 25, local officials announced. The northeast of the city is home to more than 255,000 people and located just 30 kilometers from the Russian border.
“Eight of the injured are in serious condition, and three of them are children,” the Ministry of Health of Ukraine said in a statement.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that at least a rocket from a multiple rocket launcher had not exploded and had stayed in a building.
During the talks on Monday in Istanbul, Russia told Ukraine that it would only agree to end the war if Kyiv abandoned large pieces of territory and accepts the limits of the size of its army. Ukraine rejects the Russian conditions as they are going.
“THE [peace] The theme of the colony is extremely complex; It consists of a large number of nuances, “said Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov, adding” it would be wrong to expect immediate solutions and breakthroughs. “
Andriy Yermak, chief of staff of Zelenskyy, was to visit the White House with Yulia Svyrydenko, assistant of Ukraine. Ukraine says that Moscow blocks peace talks and that Yermak reported that he would support Ukrainian requests for more difficult sanctions with regard to Russia.
“We are actively promoting important problems for Ukraine. Our program is rather complete,” said Yermak via the Telegram application after arriving in Washington.
“We are planning to talk about defense support and the situation on the battlefield, strengthening sanctions against Russia.”
Yermak said officials would also discuss an agreement that gives American preferential access to new Ukrainian mineral projects and sets up an investment fund that could be used for the reconstruction of Ukraine.
