As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, on August 6, the head of the occupation administration of the Kherson Region, Volodymyr Saldo, a collaborator, said that the AFU launched a missile attack on the Chonhar Bridge.
He also reported that a missile hit a bridge in the area of occupied Henichesk.
Both bridges connect the Kherson Region and the illegally annexed Crimea by the Russians. They are part of the so-called "land corridor," as the occupiers call the road temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and the Kherson Regions.
The AFU confirmed the task of striking the bridges connecting the Kherson Region and Crimea.
