At least 14 were downed by the Ukraine air force.

Ukraine continued to deepen its incursion into Russia, days after taking control of the Russian town of Sudzha.

The Kremlin accused Ukrainian forces of using Western-made rockets Friday to take out a strategically important bridge over the Seym River in Russia’s Kursk region.

Russian officials said the rocket attack destroyed not only the bridge but killed volunteers who were in the area to evacuate civilians.

It was unclear how many volunteers died.

Overnight Friday, Russia flew kamikaze drones into Ukraine airspace.

At least 14 were downed by Ukraine’s air force.

Ukraine’s current offensive was launched 11 days ago.

The Kremlin also claims Ukraine is planning on targeting the Kursk nuclear power plant, but has yet to provide any proof such an attack is imminent
