The Ukrainian air force says it has attacked a second bridge in Russia’s Kursk region.
Footage posted on a commander’s Telegram channel shows an attack on a bridge in Zvannoe, Kursk over the Seym river.
This is the same river over which another bridge was destroyed earlier this week.
Ukraine’s destruction of infrastructure in the area is believed to be an attempt to hamper Russian supply lines or reinforcements.
What is ticking? Putin doesn’t care for either population or territory in the short term. There’s nothing of value there, only the lost ability to bomb ukranian territory from Russia in that region.
And the embarrassment can be handled by his propaganda machine.
Money. The Ukrainians occupied a major gas distribution hub, and are set to occupy a nuclear power plant.
In any case, trading Kursk for Avdiivka does not seem like a good strategy on the long term either.
