Ukraine's air defence units repelled Russia's overnight air attack, including one on Kyiv, successfully destroying all 11 drones launched by Moscow, Ukraine's air force reported on Monday. Moscow claims that Ukraine has struck and damaged a third bridge in the Kursk region as Kyiv's forces attempt to expand their incursion into Russian territory. Russia’s Investigative Committee confirmed the attack on the bridge along the River Seym in Kursk. These attacks on the region’s bridges, occurring within days, are part of Ukraine's cross-border offensive that began on 6 August. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated on Sunday that the incursion aims to create a buffer zone to prevent further attacks by Moscow, particularly with long-range artillery, missiles, and glide bombs. The operation continued on Monday under strict secrecy.

Al Jazeera has two correspondents covering these developments: Alex Gatopoulos in Kyiv and Dorsa Jabbari in Moscow.
