Two bridge collapses in Russia's Bryansk and Kursk regions, bordering Ukraine, killed at least seven and injured dozens. Both incidents involved trains; one bridge collapsed onto a passenger train in Bryansk, with authorities citing "illegal interference" and explosions. The other, in Kursk, involved a freight train. Russian officials initially labeled the events "terrorist acts," but later removed the label. Ukraine denies responsibility, with its president confirming a delegation will attend peace talks in Istanbul.
