According to preliminary reports, the strike hit a fence near the carriageway. Civilian vehicles were also on the bridge at the time. Passengers on the train reported a powerful explosion and a bright flash. Following this, smoke began to fill the carriages, and ash started falling from the ventilation vents. According to available information, no one was injured, and the train was able to continue its journey to \u00abVydubychi\u00bb station.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ukrmedia-summary\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A jet-powered UAV struck the South Bridge in Kyiv.<\/li>\n<li>At the time of the collision, a metro train and private cars were travelling across the bridge.<\/li>\n<li>The passengers heard a loud explosion and saw a bright flash.<\/li>\n<li>Following the explosion, smoke filled the carriages and ash rained down from the ventilation system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The impact occurred next to the carriageway<\/h2>\n<p>Russian <strong>A drone struck the railing of the South Bridge<\/strong> near the road section.
