The Ukrainian military again managed to get on the Antonovsky bridge connecting Kherson with the left bank of the Dnieper. Eyewitnesses released videos showing explosions and a bridge shrouded in smoke.
In addition, on Friday it was reported about the active work of Russian air defense in the sky over Kherson.
The Ukrainian military has been shelling the Antonovsky Bridge for more than a month in order to impede the supply of the Russian group on the right bank of the river. During this time, the bridge deck was seriously damaged. The Russian military is trying to compensate for the damage to logistics by building ferry crossings across the Dnieper. In addition, to supply Kherson, Russia uses the bridge across the Dnieper in Novaya Kakhovka and the Darevsky bridge across the Ingulets, a tributary of the Dnieper. They were also damaged by shelling. During the shelling of the Antonovsky bridge on August 22, according to the pro-Russian authorities, two workers of the repair team were killed.
