Russian forces launch drone attacks that hit Kyiv’s Northern Bridge across the Dnipro River, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko says. The strike is reported as part of a wider escalation targeting major infrastructure in the Ukrainian capital.
Multiple outlets say the Northern Bridge attack follows a day after the Southern Bridge on the same river was hit by several drone strikes. BBC News and other reports describe repeat attacks on major bridges in recent days. While local officials emphasize the impact on Kyiv, outlets generally focus on the sequence of bridge strikes and the claim that drones drive the attacks.
Reports differ mainly in emphasis and wording—some describe “major bridges” in Kyiv, while others specify which bridge was hit and note the days’ spacing between attacks. All accounts, however, attribute the strikes to Russia and rely on Kyiv officials’ statements for the location and timing. The coverage highlights concerns about damage to critical transport links amid continued attacks on the city.
