Russia strikes Kyiv’s Northern Bridge, Mayor Vitali Klitschko says, in another attack targeting infrastructure across the city’s Dnipro river.
The Northern Bridge is reported to be hit by Russian air attacks, with multiple outlets describing it as part of a broader wave of strikes. All sources note the timing: the attack on the Northern Bridge comes about a day after the Southern Bridge was hit. City officials in different reports describe the strikes as escalating and causing widespread disruption, though they emphasize the pattern rather than attributing the attacks to specific weapons beyond general references to air attacks or drones.
While the outlets largely agree on what is struck and when, they differ slightly in their wording about the means. BBC and France 24 describe the Northern Bridge strike as an air attack, while DW and other reports focus on the immediate sequence following the earlier Southern Bridge hits. The overall context presented is an apparent intensification of Russian attacks on Kyiv’s key bridges over the Dnipro river.
