Ukrainian forces say they struck three Russian targets overnight—a tanker in the Black Sea, a pontoon crossing near Novoekonomichne in Donetsk, and a concentration of Russian troops in Horlivka—as part of broader efforts to weaken Moscow’s military and logistical capabilities; no casualties were reported.
Russia has built a pontoon crossing under the Chonhar Bridge linking occupied Crimea with Ukraine's mainland following an alleged Ukrainian strike, according to satellite footage. The Chonhar Bridge is one of the main connecting roads between the occupied Crimea and the Russian-controlled part of Kherson Oblast. Russian forces had reportedly used the bridge to move large amounts of military equipment and personnel to Ukraine's mainland.
Satellite images show that the Russians have started building a pontoon crossing under the Chonhar bridge, which was damaged by a missile attack. The pictures reveal that two bridges in the area have been damaged. The attack was reported by Russian-controlled authorities of the occupied territories of Ukraine on 22 June.
