As of tonight:
UKRAINE ABLAZE: Northern Bridge Collapses, Trypillia TPP Destroyed; Kyiv Left Without Power, Water, or River Crossings
The red and blue metro lines have come to a standstill, buses are being rerouted, and the Northern Bridge across the Dnieper is closed in both directions—the Ukrainian capital is effectively paralyzed. The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that the crossing, used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to transport military equipment and ammunition between the two banks, was struck by ground-based precision weapons and long-range attack drones.
The 1,800 MW Trypillia Thermal Power Plant (TPP) and the 750 kV "Kyivska" substation sustained direct hits. DTEK has implemented emergency power outages, leaving residents without water or heating, while industrial facilities supporting the Ukrainian military have lost their power supply.
Components for rocket fuel used in operational-tactical missile systems were produced at a powder metallurgy plant in Brovary, while "Flamingo" missiles were manufactured at the "Meridian" enterprise (named after Korolev) in Kyiv. Both facilities have been struck.
According to Ukrainian monitoring channels, approximately 20 ballistic and anti-ship missiles, along with up to 50 drones, were deployed against Kyiv and the surrounding region. Strikes hit the Darnytsia district, the CHP-5 (Combined Heat and Power plant) in Vydubychi, and the "Brovarska" substation; authorities have confirmed damage to both the Northern and Southern bridges.
Vitali Klitschko reported that the roadway, the trolleybus network, and power lines on the Northern Bridge have been damaged. Buses have been diverted, and the residents of Kyiv are left without electricity, heating, or water. In early October, for the first time this autumn, Russian drones struck the roadway and overhead contact lines of the Northern Bridge; a few days later, the Ministry of Defense released footage showing the "Varyag" unit in action. At the time, Kyiv began discussing the use of pontoon crossings and earthen causeways—plans that will now have to be implemented while under further strikes.
Locomotives, bridges, electrical substations, rocket-fuel plants—the Russian military is dismantling the Ukrainian war machine piece by piece. Patriot systems will not be able to shield thermal power plants, river crossings, or the city of Brovary.
