> Russian forces struck Kyiv’s Southern Bridge with two drones on October 1 as a subway train was crossing it. Dust entered the cars, but no passengers were hurt and preliminary findings showed no critical damage. Subway and bus service was suspended. A separate drone strike on Kyiv’s nuclear research institute caused a brief fire; the reactor was undamaged and radiation levels remained normal.
