More good news for those on the Crimea, the bridge is up and running.


"According to the Minister of Emergency Situations, vehicles with a carrying capacity of 3.5 tons are currently passing through the bridge. As renovations progress, this number will increase.
Cars are now passed in portions - now 60 pieces at a time. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow they will let 100 passes.

Tourists are also asked not to use the Crimean Bridge unnecessarily so as not to create unnecessary congestion and traffic jams during repair work and restructuring of the bridge for the duration of the repair".

Is this like the time Lyman was being defended successfully by Russia and being used as a launchpad for a counter attack?

Latest from Rybar on Lyman.

The situation in the Limansky direction
as of 20.00 September 30, 2022

After the withdrawal from Drobyshevo and Yampol , the defense of the RF Armed Forces was built along the outskirts of the Liman and the buffer zone around the Liman - Zarechnoye - Torskoye road . The Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to completely block the corridor, but the Russian troops have so far successfully repulsed the strikes.

According to preliminary estimates, at least 6,000 Ukrainian servicemen and foreign mercenaries are involved in the attack on Liman. Armored groups are trying to advance from Drobyshevo , Stavok, Dibrovo and Yampol towards Liman itself .

From TorskoyThe RF Armed Forces deployed reinforcements, including artillery, MLRS and armored vehicles. Near Yampol and to the north of the Liman there are oncoming maneuver battles.

To the north of Zarechny , the Ukrainian military, with the support of armored vehicles, tried to break under the dam across the Zherebets River to Terny, but were driven out from there by the approaching units of the RF Armed Forces and withdrew to the western bank in Ivanovka .

In order to strengthen the onslaught of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, units are hastily transferred from near Seversk and Soledar , reserves from Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. They have to partly expose the Soledar direction, where units of the Wagner PMC, NM LPR and DPR are advancing.

The situation remains extremely tense, however, for now, the RF Armed Forces still control Liman and hold back the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. If the allied forces manage to hold back the onslaught, defend the city and inflict heavy losses on the attacking Ukrainian forces, then the Russian troops will actually seize the initiative. In this case, the situation at the front can change dramatically.

Unfortunately, this is the strike map on Donetsk City - the last 30 days. Civilians are suffering from shelling.

Go and watch to highlights of any Ukrainian football international and in the top corner where the score is it denotes UKR for the team, widely accepted.

Whilst you are totally correct, I have this nagging doubt that @davids supports the Ukrainian national team.

 

[ramacca]

By?

Ukrainian military.

 

[Tree13]

Ukrainian military.

They should, of course, adopt the more civilised warfaring methods of the Russians. Everyone knows the correct way to minimise civilian casualties during war is to round them up, beat them, rape them, shoot them in the head and then bury them in mass graves 400 at a time.

Russia doing what they do best. Targeting and killing innocent civilians.

It's the price you pay when you start a war ain't it? When you crap on someone else's doorstep, don't go crying when they return the favour with interest.

I take it you are referring to the war that started in 2014? As the people of Donetsk have been bombed since then. With increased shelling in February as recorded by the OSCE.

This guy was very lucky in Donetsk City, don't you think?

My hotel in Donetsk just got hit by a Ukrainian artillery strike. I watched a massive explosion rock the intersection of Artemis St and Hurova Ave moments before recording this video while walking back. If I’d have returned thirty seconds earlier, I’d have been killed.

I mean, call me dubious minded, but that label doesn't entirely fill me full of confidence re: the veracity of this tweet.

You're quoting Russian state-affiliated media.

Your quote LITERALLY includes the words "Russian state-affiliated media".

Do you mean the Donetsk hotel bombing never happened?

Is he lucky to be alive?

PS. People have quoted Rybar, another Russian state-sponsored media. Are they wrong to do that?
