04.10.2026 β’ The Day Russia Vowed Heavier Strikes on Ukraine
β¨
Overnight coverage carried forward the exchange around Kyiv's bridges. Moscow officials claimed drones headed for the capital were downed, while Belgorod authorities reported three dead and 12 wounded in Ukrainian strikes on homes. Russian agencies claimed hits on a Kharkiv command post, logistics and data centers in Odessa and Chernomorsk, military cargo ships, and renewed Geran strikes on Kyiv.
The Defence Ministry said attacks on Ukraine's military industry would grow in response to Zelensky's threats against Russian refineries, followed by claims of a strike on Kyiv's Northern road bridge and power cuts in the capital. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz arrived in Kyiv unannounced as Medvedev warned blocking Rassvet satellites would mean war in space.
At home, Irkutsk hospitals entered quarantine after an anti-plague institute worker died, officially of pneumonia, and police detained around 60 people at an authorized Communist rally in Moscow.
