Russia intensified its assault on Kyiv as drones repeatedly struck the Ukrainian capital’s Southern Bridge, damaging infrastructure and disrupting transport. The attacks came after months of Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries and energy facilities, a campaign Vladimir Putin acknowledged had hurt Moscow.
Putin said Russia was responding to attacks on its energy infrastructure and rejected the idea of simply halting its own long-range strikes. With Kyiv under growing drone pressure and both sides targeting vital infrastructure, is the Russia-Ukraine long-range war entering an even more dangerous phase?

If Russia wanted to destroy the bridge, they would not have used drones, but would have send a few missiles.
Unless the bridge was already prepared for destruction by the Ukrainians, with explosives place at the base, which the Russians could detonate with a drone, these drones can only cause superficial damage.
It looks like a preparation for an attack on Kyiv, but I still think that Russia will give priority to the Donbas region and Zhaporozhia, maybe even Odessa before they will launch an assault on Kyiv.
Russia doesn't want to cause massive civilian casualties and as long as the population is still inside the city, the Russians will not launch an all-out asault on the city, but limit themselves to surgical strikes.
These attacks are probably intended to force foreign diplomats, NGO's as well as the Ukrainian government to relocate and force them to evacuate the majority of the population from the city.
This would sink the western narrative that Ukraine is holding its own like a brick and significantly undermine the moral of the Ukrainian forces.
