At the north-western entrance to the Ukrainian capital across the Irpin river, people flee the advancing Russian forces using a makeshift pedestrian bridge. Some civilians are transporting their groceries, while soldiers are carrying across weapons. Ukrainian forces destroyed several bridges around Kyiv to help stall the Russian invasion of the capital.
