The Chongar Bridge suffered significant damage: satellite images

The Chongar Road Bridge, which connects the temporarily occupied Crimea with the Kherson region, has sustained serious damage. Satellite images make it possible to assess the extent of the damage to the bridge.

Satellite images from September 26 show at least three large holes in the bridge deck and the adjacent crossing. Due to the damage, traffic across the bridge has become significantly more difficult.

What is known?

The Chongar crossing is a vital road route between Crimea and the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region. Damage to it could complicate Russian military logistics and cargo transportation.

No information has yet been reported regarding the exact nature of the damage or the possibility of fully restoring traffic across the bridge. 

This was reported by the Telegram channel Dnipro Osint, citing satellite imagery. 
 

Russia attacked the North Bridge in Kyiv for the second time in two days — Interia.

In Kyiv, the metro will run across the South Bridge during a yellow alert.

As a reminder, metro service in Kyiv may resume via the South Bridge during yellow alerts.
