Russo-Ukrainian war, day 1682: Russian drones repeatedly hit Kyiv’s Southern Bridge, forcing transport restrictions across the capital
Drones struck Volgograd and Samara overnight, ISW found Russia ended September with a net territorial loss despite more than 46,000 casualties, and Hungary agreed to unblock two EU accession clusters once Ukraine passes its minority-schooling bill.
On day 1682 of the Russo-Ukrainian War, Russian drones repeatedly targeted Kyiv's Southern Bridge, which connects the capital city across the Dnipro River. This attack has been ongoing since October 1st, forcing transport restrictions and disrupting movement within the capital. The Southern Bridge has been a frequent target of Russian drone strikes, with the latest assault causing significant disruptions.
As the war continues, Ukraine struggles to develop and produce enough drones to counter Russia's advanced weaponry, leading to increased reliance on international aid to bolster their defense capabilities.
