      wonder if pillar got damaged this time

      It was hit by naval drones, so I think it would have to be pillar damage :)

        the article has a video, the bridge deck partially collapsed on one side, right at the pillar. But the pillar itself looks pretty much intact. It’s really hard to damage solid concrete with a nearby explosion, so that makes sense.

        On the other hand, russia said there was no pillar damage, so it’s probably torn to shreds.

    The right way to start the week! I’m sure all these repairs are being done to the highest standards with full structural surveys, no way for all these strikes to be causing cumulative damage…

      I think it’s hilarious, personally, not withstanding the child who apparently was killed in the explosion. It’s sad and dumb that parents would bring their child to a fucking war zone for a vacation.

    “Putin called it a cruel and senseless act, as he said the bridge had not been used for months to supply Russian forces fighting in Ukraine, Reuters reports.”

    Then…

    “The Russian president, Vladimir Putin, demanded concrete proposals on ensuring the security of the bridge linking southern Russia to Crimea” lol sure seems to be fired up about a bridge they’re not using much
