Russian drones struck Kyiv’s Northern Bridge as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz arrived for an unannounced visit, with air-raid sirens sounding across the capital. Two people were injured when the bridge’s roadway was hit, disrupting traffic between the city’s eastern and western banks. Merz condemned Russia’s attacks and pledged continued German support, including military assistance, energy repairs, and cooperation on drone production. The visit came as Moscow warned it would intensify strikes, while Kyiv urged European allies to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses.
