03.10.2026 ⇢ The Day Russia Struck Kyiv's Northern Bridge
⌨
Following the previous day's claims on the Southern crossing, the Defence Ministry claimed a strike on Kyiv's Northern bridge over the Dnieper, with state and independent outlets alike describing blocked traffic, jams and a 'very dramatic' situation in the capital alongside talk of Western embassies preparing to leave. Putin was shown jet-powered Geran-4 and Geran-5 drones, while Interfax reported Ukrainian drones damaging apartments in Kaluga.
Attention shifted midday to the death of Soviet television healer Anatoly Kashpirovsky at 87, noted across the spectrum with obituaries and recollections of his on-screen career, alongside reports that Ramzan Kadyrov received the rank of army general.
Evening coverage turned to negotiations, citing the NYT that Lukoil's foreign assets entered US-Russia talks on Ukraine, as the Foreign Ministry warned foreigners against staying in Ukraine and outlets relayed Zelensky's demand for ballistic missiles able to hit Moscow and vows to strike Russian refineries.
