Ex-separatist leader: Antonovsky bridge completely out of order

Former "defence minister" of the so-called "Donetsk People's Republic" Igor Girkin (better known as Strelkov) has complained that the Antonovsky bridge in Kherson has fallen into disrepair as a result of Ukrainian strikes.

According to Caliber.Az, Strelkov laments why the Russian command is dawdling and in no way dares to strike at the decision-making centres.

"The respected Ukrainian partners (not mine) are having a holiday again - a video of the broken bridge over the sluice in Nova Kakhovka is being circulated on the internet. The inoperability of the bridge to travel has been confirmed to me - I received new hits today around 1 pm, which someone filmed on a gadget (the bridge itself is much harder to destroy, but it can only be crossed on foot now, I guess). Now both road bridges over the Dnieper - held by the Russian Armed Forces since late February - are unusable. Yes, they can be attempted to be repaired, but the probability that the partners will let them do so while the bridges are within range of their missiles is below zero.

This is what happens when you care too much so that your partners (through whose territory our state corporations pump gas to Europe) do not suffer, and keep on dawdling instead of hitting their own bridges and "decision-making centres"," he wrote on his Telegram channel.
