How would that explain the wide burn pattern across the lanes that weren’t directly hit? The tiny pic below shows the blast orginating from the side of the traffic lanes and expanding across all lanes and towards the train bridge to the left in the pic.


Ammo cooking off in one of the boxcars could have caused tank cars to explode and would explain the burn pattern on the uncollapsed section of roadway as well as why the other side buckled with some sign of sliding to the outside.

See my link to British retired general who talked about ammo transportation safety.

This could explain other incidents of ammo dump explosions

The failed attack on Kerch strait bridge will be remembered as the beginning of the end of the Ukrainian offensives in the newly annexed territories of the Russian Federation.

Consider this was probably an accident, or maybe even 4D chess on the part of Putin, it's not our place to judge his strategy.

Putin has this under control, don't worry.

How so? The attack was successful whether or not the bridge is up and running. It was symbolic, it can be hit and now they know that. It is laughable to call it a “failed attack”.

4 lanes of vehicle traffic is now only 2 useable lanes

2 tracks for train traffic is now 1 useable track

50% reduction in traffic….

Guess you are a glass half full kinda guy…..

Please share. How many troops did Ukraine lose in the failed attack deep in Russian held territory? What did it cost?

In other news Ukraine seems to be gathering for another blow. Light attacks in contested areas makes it seem like Russian resistance is stiffening but that has been the Ukrainian MO since they went on offensive.

Wait until you see a great opening and then throw a haymaker. It is conservative but it has worked for them. They aren't taking giant risks here but that strategy has served them well throughout this conflict. It is Russia that has rolled the dice on some very risky decisions... and it hasn't worked very well for them.

We will now pause for our local Russian supporters/Kremlin trolls to announce that now "Russia is taking this seriously, just you wait and see!"

I would link the video of his commie pig buddy hiding in the shitter when a Ukrainian walked up and shot his arse through the door and then unloaded 20+ rounds into him as he ran out…. But I feel that might be a little much

It’s on r/combat footage and was posted yesterday tho if you wanna find it

The HIMARS crew spoke about the non-stop day-and-a-half operation

Journalists had the opportunity to observe the work of Ukrainian rocket launchers. From the moment they arrived at the position to the actual missile launch, 30 seconds had passed.

Reloading of the missiles in practice takes up to 5 minutes, writes WSJ.

The vehicles are constantly in motion and have not returned to their respective military unit bases for several months.

The Ukrainian military assured American journalists that so far, no HIMARS has been destroyed by the Russians. At the same time, M142 operators became more cautious after the appearance of Iranian kamikaze drones in the Russian Armed Forces.

The Ukrainian officer shared that in recent weeks, they have twice decided not to enter the strike position as they received information about the proximity of enemy UAVs.

Ukrainian HIMARS are protected by Special Operations Forces and air defense units.
