01.06.2025 ⇢ The twin bridge sabotage morning
⌨A passenger train struck a collapsed bridge in Bryansk region early morning, killing seven and injuring dozens. Initially reported as structural failure, authorities later declared both this incident and a second bridge collapse in neighboring Kursk region as deliberate sabotage. Casualty figures fluctuated throughout morning coverage, reaching 71 injured by afternoon.
Ukrainian forces launched their most extensive drone offensive yet, deploying truck-transported aircraft to strike military airfields across five regions, including the first recorded attack on Siberian territory near Irkutsk. Coverage emphasized the operational sophistication of transporting drones deep into Russian territory before deployment.
Russia's delegation arrived in Istanbul for negotiations scheduled June 2, with chief negotiator Medinsky confirming receipt of Ukraine's draft memorandum. The talks proceeded despite escalating infrastructure attacks, with Zelensky claiming responsibility for the airfield strikes. US Secretary Rubio expressed condolences to Lavrov over the bridge incidents while discussing resumption of direct negotiations.

⌨Russian media reports the casualty toll from the train disaster has risen significantly, with numbers varying between 66-69 injured and seven dead after a bridge collapse in the Bryansk/Kursk border region (NTV, RBC, Rossiyskaya Gazeta, RIA Novosti, RT, TASS, Vesti).
