Cheese with holes. This is what the road surface of the Antonivka Bridge looks like in images that appeared on Wednesday morning. Entire pieces of asphalt and concrete have disappeared over a length of several tens of meters, so that the water of the Dnieper can be seen through the twisted steel reinforcement. It is impossible for cars to drive on the 1.4 kilometer long structure, let alone heavy military equipment. A major problem for the Russian army, which occupies territory west of the Dnieper only here. There is still a railway bridge, but it has already been damaged. And the same goes for two bridges further east, along which the road to Kherson would be seventy kilometers longer anyway.
