Russia Struck The North Bridge In Kyiv Again: A Plume Of Smoke Rose Over The City

There is a large crater visible in the road surface, and a fire has broken out.

Russia continues to attack bridges across the Dnieper River in Kyiv, and the morning of October 4 was no exception, according to "Focus".

The enemy struck the Northern Bridge in the Ukrainian capital again, causing a column of smoke to rise over the city. Political strategist Andriy Smoliy documented the first moments after the strike, noting that it occurred at 10:21 a.m.

Photos quickly spread across local social media groups. Later, footage emerged showing a large crater in the bridge’s roadway: the asphalt is damaged, and there is a fire around the impact site.

Other images show that the strike—presumably by a “Geran-5” drone—hit near one of the bridge’s supports at a time when there was heavy traffic on the bridge.

The same bridge was attacked by the Russians yesterday, October 3, around 7:00 a.m. An enemy drone struck a support pillar while vehicles were crossing the bridge.
