**Deck**: A nighttime ballistic strike on Kyiv damaged the Northern Bridge and energy facilities in Kyiv and Zhytomyr regions, injuring at least five people and disrupting transport and basic services across the capital, according to Mayor Vitali Klitschko.

Residents in Kyiv face fresh disruption after a nighttime ballistic strike damaged transport links and energy facilities, leaving city services under pressure.

Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko said an enemy strike hit infrastructure targets in and around the capital overnight, injuring at least five people in the city. According to his account, the attack damaged the Northern Bridge and energy facilities in both Kyiv region and neighboring Zhytomyr region.

By 06:06 UTC, Klitschko said traffic across the Northern Bridge had been completely suspended in both directions. The crossing is one of the main links over the Dnipro River, so its closure immediately affects movement across the city.

Public transport has also been hit. Reports from Kyiv state that train services on the red and blue lines of the Kyiv Metro have been suspended following the strike.

Local authorities describe the consequences for basic services as severe. They report an extremely difficult situation for electricity, heating, and water supply in the capital because of damage to energy facilities in Kyiv and Zhytomyr regions.

Missile debris caused additional damage inside the city. Preliminary reports from Kyiv say fragments hit a five‑story residential building in the Solomianskyi district and blew out windows in another five‑story block.

Separately, Kyiv’s Northern Bridge was also reported as damaged in a brief update shared earlier in the morning, which noted that all traffic on the bridge had been completely suspended and that metro services on the red and blue lines were halted.

In the coming hours, key indicators will be how quickly engineers can stabilize power, heat, and water supply, and whether city authorities can reopen any lanes on the Northern Bridge or restore metro operations on the affected lines.
