Vladimir Putin bombed a key bridge in the Ukrainian frontline city of Kherson as he defies Donald Trump and seeks major new territorial gains in the war.
Footage shows Russia using two guided bombs to destroy a vital road crossing on the Dnipro River - severing a main artery to the Korabel district of the city.
The bold move forced the district to be evacuated, in a significant blow to Ukraine.
It was yet another strike on its civilian infrastructure by Putin, who is seeking to control the entire Kherson region as a war aim.
Three private homes and a high-rise residential building were also damaged in the strike which took place at 6pm local time on Saturday, officials said. A local resident was injured in the attack, according to local reports.
