Russian Strikes Hit Kyiv Bridge and Subway Infrastructure, Killing One Person and Injuring at Least 10

Klitschko said most of the injured were students as the attack also disrupted metro service and closed the Southern Bridge.

  • On Monday, October 26, a Russian missile attack on Kyiv killed one person and injured 10 others, striking a university dormitory and administrative buildings, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said.
  • Russian forces have intensified strikes on Kyiv's bridges over the Dnipro River since early October, hitting the Southern Bridge at least twice and damaging the subway system and medical facilities.
  • Nine of the 10 injured people were hospitalized, with three in serious condition, after the strike hit a State Trade and Economics University dormitory in the Desnianskyi district.
  • President Volodymyr Zelenskiy criticized delays in securing critical missile supplies for Patriots and NASAMS, stating that 'artificial delays in air defence for Ukraine are helping terror' while awaiting US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth's approval.
  • Moscow has long denied targeting civilians, yet the strike hit residences and medical facilities, contradicting the Defense Ministry's stated focus on drone production and storage facilities.
