The UK Ministry of Defense in its intelligence report said that Russia continues to make minimal gains in its Donbas offensive, with Ukrainian forces holding the line.
Authorities in Russian-occupied Kherson confirmed that Ukrainian troops had attacked the Antonovskiy bridge across the Dnieper River on Tuesday, with social media photos showing visible damage to the bridge's roadway.
“It is highly likely that the bridge remains usable – but it is a key vulnerability for Russian Forces,” the MoD said in a tweet. “It is one of only two road crossing points over the Dnieper by which Russia can supply or withdraw its forces in the territory it has occupied west of the river.”
This region contains Kherson, which is politically and symbolically significant for Russia. Control of the Dnieper crossings is anticipated to have a major role in the outcome of the war in the region, the ministry said.
