The Ukrainian military, with the use of HIMARS rocket systems, once again struck the Antonivskyi Bridge, one of the "transport arteries'' supporting the right-bank cluster of the russian occupation army. The news was reported by the operational command "South" of the UAF.
"The condition of the Antoniv bridge has been adjusted once again, no matter what the occupiers intended. Given the damage and continuous fire control, the occupying forces currently do not dare to use or repair the bridge," the message reads.

By the way, a new, more recent video of another bridge over the Dnipro River – near the Kakhovska HPP – has appeared on the network. The source of the footage says, this is what the state of the bridge was, as recorded on the evening of August 24.
Judging by the damage to this bridge, we can make conclusions on the incredible accuracy of the GMLRS missiles "landing" on the target – practically one next to another, causing serious damage to the bridge and making it unusable.
Defense Express has covered the condition of the bridge near the Kakhovska dam in one of our previous news releases. As it turns out, this crucial source for resupply of russians stationed on the right bank of Dnipro had suffered even more devastating strikes since then.
At the same time, despite the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have proven themselves to be effective users of HIMARS, the United States is in no hurry to approve the provision of high-precision long-range ATACMS missiles to the Ukrainian Army, arguing that the available GMLRS rockets are "fully sufficient to fulfill all the current tasks facing Ukraine’s military."
Meanwhile, Western media has noticed the shift in Ukraine's war strategy that came with the deliveries of long-range artillery systems and their use against russian supply infrastructure of critical importance.
