作者：保罗·柯比（Paul Kirby）、保罗·亚当斯（Paul Adams）两架俄罗斯无人机击中了基辅的一座主要桥梁，导致乌克兰首都的公共交通陷入瘫痪，并标志着莫斯科的攻击进入了新阶段。
By Paul Kirby, Paul Adams Two Russian drones have hit one of Kyiv's main bridges, bringing public transport in the Ukrainian capital to a halt and signalling a new stage in Moscow's attacks.
皮夫登内桥（Pivdennyi），即南方大桥，在一列地铁列车驶过时遭到攻击。乘客们描述了爆炸产生的冲击波如何通过通风系统进入他们的车厢。
The Pivdennyi or Southern bridge came under fire as a metro train was travelling across. Passengers described how dust from a blast wave entered their carriage through the ventilation system.
皮夫登内桥是横跨将基辅东西两部分隔开的第聂伯河的主要交通大动脉之一。
The Pivdennyi bridge is one of the main arteries across the Dnipro river dividing western and eastern Kyiv.
在周四的袭击发生之前，基辅的桥梁从未被击中过——尽管在靠近一个主要支撑截面的地方发生了剧烈的爆炸，但城市当局表示，初步检查“未发现对结构的任何关键损害”。
Kyiv's bridges had not been hit before Thursday's strikes - and despite a dramatic explosion close to a main support section, city authorities said preliminary checks "did not find any critical damage to the structure".
对于基辅人民来说，无人机袭击再次强有力地提醒人们，俄罗斯正紧紧盯着他们的这座城市，并竭尽全力扰乱首都的生活。
For the people of Kyiv, the drone strikes were another powerful reminder that Russia has their city firmly in its sights and is doing everything it can to disrupt life in the capital.
基辅刚刚遭受了自上冬结束以来对该市能源网的首轮协同攻击，评论人士认为，看到乌克兰防空力量短缺，俄罗斯加大了其军事行动力度。
Kyiv had just suffered its first co-ordinated attacks on the city's energy grid since the end of last winter, and commentators believe Russia has stepped up its campaign seeing that Ukraine is suffering from a shortage of air defences.
周三的袭击也宣告了首都重新开始限电。尽管基辅当局花费数月时间建造了小型发电厂以应对俄罗斯预计中的冬季攻势，但总理谢尔盖·科雷茨基（Serhii Koretskyi）表示，自春末以来，尚未发生过如此规模的联合打击。
Strikes on Wednesday also heralded a return to power cuts in the capital. Although Kyiv authorities have spent months constructing smaller-scale power plants to counter Russia's anticipated winter campaign, Prime Minister Serhii Koretskyi said a combined strike on such a scale had not taken place since the end of spring.
周四对首都的第一次重大袭击发生在当地时间约09:00（格林威治标准时间10:00），当时一架俄罗斯无人机撞击了一所学校的三楼。
The first big attack on the capital on Thursday came when a Russian drone slammed into the third floor of a school at about 09:00 local time (10:00 GMT).
尽管当时学校里有100多名学生，但在无人机击中时他们都已经进入了防空洞。学校的一面墙壁部分坍塌。
Although more than 100 students had been at the school at the time, they had all reached a shelter when the drone hit. One of the school's walls partially collapsed.
“该避难所的结构非常坚固，因此没有孩子或工作人员受伤，”校长瓦伦蒂娜·霍尔纳说，“他们只是继续上课而已。”俄罗斯否认针对平民的目标，但霍尔纳表示：“要想摧毁我们的国家，他们就必须先摧毁我们的孩子。”总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基强调，俄罗斯必须为此承担全部责任。
"[The shelter's] structure is strong, so none of the children were hurt, neither were any staff," said head teacher Valentyna Chorna. "They just kept on with their lessons." Russia denies targeting civilians, but Chorna said that to destroy her nation "they need to destroy children". President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia had to be held fully accountable.
当天上午晚些时候，两架无人机袭击了皮夫登尼大桥，其中一架击中了大桥中央支柱的基部。
Later in the morning, two drones hit the Pivdenny bridge, one hitting the base of a central stanchion.
乌克兰5频道（5 Kanal TV）的记者玛丽安娜·米基琴科描述说，在爆炸发生前，她乘坐的地铁列车上有一名乘客喊出了“Shahed”这个词——这指的是俄罗斯制造的、由伊朗设计的无人机；爆炸导致灰尘弥漫在整个车厢内。她说，她所在的车厢里没有人受伤，列车最终将乘客送到了位于第聂伯河右岸的维杜比奇（Vydubychi）站，之后便不再继续行驶。第聂伯河的右岸位于该城市的西部。虽然地铁服务暂时中断，但道路交通最终得以恢复。
Ukrainian 5 Kanal TV reporter Mariana Mykytenko described how one of the passengers on her metro train shouted the word "Shahed", referring to Russia's Iranian-designed drones, before the blast sent dust pouring into their carriage. No-one in her compartment was hurt, she said, and "the train took people to Vydubychi station on the right bank, then it didn't go any further". The right bank is on the west side of the Dnipro river. Metro trains were suspended but road traffic was eventually allowed to resume.
目前尚不清楚在基辅大桥袭击中使用了哪种类型的无人机，但乌克兰官员称，俄罗斯新型的喷气式无人机已于周三首次投入使用。据泽连斯基的技术顾问谢尔盖·贝斯克列斯特诺夫（Serhiy Beskrestnov，又名“Flash”）介绍，这种无人机配备了40公斤重的弹头，专门用于摧毁高压电线杆和铁桥结构。
It is not yet clear what kind of drone was used in the Kyiv bridge attack, but Ukrainian officials say a new design of Russia's jet-powered drones came into operation for the first time on Wednesday. The drone has a 40kg warhead and is especially designed to destroy high-voltage electricity pylons and iron bridge structures, according to Zelensky's technology adviser Serhiy Beskrestnov, also known as Flash.
近几周来，俄罗斯在喷气式无人机的使用上取得了显著成效；乌克兰空军官员表示，仅在9月份，俄罗斯就发射了至少3,177架此类无人机。这些无人机的高速度给乌克兰的防空系统带来了巨大压力。
In recent weeks, Russia has had considerable success with jet-powered drones and Ukrainian air force officials say that, during September, at least 3,177 were launched. Their high speed has caused problems for Ukraine's beleaguered air defences.
周三晚上，基辅的核研究所也遭到了无人机的袭击；本周早些时候，当一架无人机袭击了乌克兰国家科学院时，还造成了一人死亡。
Kyiv's Institute of Nuclear Research came under drone attack on Wednesday night and, earlier in the week, one person was killed when a drone targeted the National Academy of Sciences.
