Urban electric rail connects Kyiv's banks as Pivdennyi Bridge shuts down

Kyiv's urban electric rail network, Kyiv City Express, ran on its full schedule between both banks of the Dnipro on October 2, officials said, even as the city closed the Pivdennyi Bridge entirely after overnight Russian strikes.

It was the third strike on that bridge within 24 hours, with the prior day's damage hitting the road surface, support pillars, guardrails, and the concrete protecting subway tracks. Authorities also restricted movement across the Paton and Metro Bridges and rerouted bus and trolleybus lines over the Darnytskyi Bridge, producing lengthy traffic jams and stranded commuters.

In the same overnight assault, a Russian drone hit a multi-story residential building in Kyiv's Darnytskyi District, killing one civilian.
