Russia pounds Kyiv's Dnipro bridges with drones for four straight days
Russian drones struck Kyiv's two main crossings over the Dnipro on four consecutive days, fully closing the Pivdennyi (Southern) Bridge since 2 October and repeatedly hitting the Pivnichnyi (Northern) Bridge on 3 and 4 October. The campaign injured civilians, damaged road surfaces, trolleybus and metro infrastructure, and cut hot water in the Desnianskyi district, while triggering a city-wide transport collapse that left main arteries paralysed and pedestrians crossing on foot.
