Ukraine: Two Key Bridges Understood To Have Been Destroyed In Bakhmut Over Last Two Days

Two key bridges are understood to have been destroyed in Bakhmut over the last two days, as Ukrainian forces come under increasing pressure in the city.

An update from defence officials in London says the Russian army has made advances in northern suburbs.

Meanwhile, the Russian Defence Minister has visited troops in south Donetsk, one of the few trips to the conflict zone taken by Moscow’s top chiefs.
