Storm Shadow Strike Caught On Camera
Published 1 years ago
Security camera footage shows the moment a Ukrainian Storm Shadow cruise missile struck Chongar bridge in southern Ukraine in an attempt to disrupt Russian resupply and reinforcements amid the ongoing counteroffensive.
The Chongar bridge is a critical supply route that Russia uses to move troops and equipment out of the Crimean Peninsula into the Ukrainian mainland. The Russians will likely be able to bypass the bridge with pontoons while it is being repaired, but the strikes will surely slow the resupply process. Ukraine understands that their successes on the counteroffensive fronts are closely tied to the Russians' ability to keep their ranks filled and fully armed.
