that's the bridge, and the biggest target in reach of Ukraine afaik. Definitely marks a big event. Not sure how quick of a repair job that could be, looks like the piers are undamaged and they could just pull away the damaged spans and drop new ones in, but it depends on if the fire took out part of the rail bridge too.
Is this the biggest attack on european infrastructure since kosovo? I mean we've had terrorism kill people on subways and trains, but I don't think there's been so much damage to infrastructure since then


Man, this bridge got tortured, raped, and ended up in a mass grave.

and then they looted a bucket of gold teeth off the bridge, all of which conspicuously have no teeth or roots and are clearly a dentist's cache of old restorations waiting to be recycled

Shitty part is these types of moves just further enflame and will lead to further war, retaliatory bombing, etc.

I'm sure it were the Russians bombing their own bridge just like they shelled their own troops in the nuclear plant and blew up their own pipelines :lol:

Good sarcasm but actually no. The Russians just failed to protect the most critical transport infrastructure in the southern theatre.

Pretty interesting the ideologues are defending the use of sucide-bombing.

Big review of how the US media handled the pipeline story
and now we've got the 'bridge story'. If these are both attacks on Russia by western agents / western-sponsored proxies, the most likely next step is going to be retaliatory escalation in kind, as has historically been Russia's modus operandi.

Ukrainian leadership seems amateurish. In less than 24 hours they went from gloating about taking down the bridge to completely denying it and blaming Russia as yet another false flag...

Between the Dugina thing and now this it feels like they are getting external partner rebukes. It kind of feels like Ukraine is just going commando with some of these ops while partners in the west want contained type engagements.
