Swing in
Hi everyone. I can imagine what "swung" or "swung in" means here, but I couldn't confirm it.
"we swung in towards the center, and started to enter a city devastated beyond all comprehension"
Is "swing in" a phrasal verb? Does it mean that they are just going towards the center? In a good mood, maybe? Thanks

Yes, I think it's just a way of saying "go" here. Like when you are giving someone directions when they are driving you might say "swing a right" meaning "go right" or "turn right". Or you might "swing by your friend's house" meaning "go to your friend's house" or "visit your friend's house".
