Ukrainian architect and engineer Oleg Grechukh said that the construction of a new bridge across the Dnieper in Kyiv will require more than 15 billion hryvnia and will take more than two years, which makes the project unrealistic in current conditions. Instead, the option of quickly restoring communication between the banks using embankment dams and pontoon crossings in the event of damage to existing bridges is being considered. Infrastructure Minister Nikolai Kalashnik confirmed that work on the construction of reserve crossings will begin next week.

Russian President Vladimir Putin will pay a working visit to Turkmenistan on October 8-9 to attend the CIS Council of Heads of State meeting and the Caspian Environmental Summit, according to Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov.

Prime Minister Rumen Radev confirmed that two commercial vessels, the Togo-flagged Alfa Watan and Palau-flagged Able, were hit by unidentified sea and aerial drones off Bulgaria's coast in the Black Sea's exclusive economic zone on Tuesday. The Alfa Watan sank after sustaining critical damage while en route from Egypt to Romania, with crew status unknown, while the Able caught fire and had its crew of 18 rescued by a Bulgarian ferry, two with severe injuries flown to Varna hospital. Radev called the attack an unacceptable violation of international law and noted disruptions to shipping and rising insurance costs. He suggested Ukraine as a likely suspect based on modus operandi, citing its prior combined drone attacks, while noting Bulgaria has withdrawn weapons support for Ukraine under his government.

In Paris, protesting schoolchildren began to destroy offices and storefronts on Boulevard Voltaire after the protest began peacefully.

President Macron called an emergency meeting due to mass protests by high school students across France.
