Putin’s land bridge to Crimea has been effectively cut after the Chonhar bridges were hit by Ukrainian missiles earlier today.

When Artillery shells start running out for Russian forces in Zaporizhzhia, we will be nearing the start of the Crimea 500 road race. Maybe it will become the Donbas 500, if they can’t withdraw to Crimea in time. In any event, Russian soldiers should loot a civilian vehicle now, to beat the rush when it is time to run. Make sure the gas tank is topped off, and be ready to kill your officers, to get a quick start.
Like the concrete Antonivsky Bridge in Kherson, the Chonhar Bridge might need a few more holes punched in it, to take it out. There is a land bridge to the West that is a few kilometers wide, that connects Crimea to the mainland, and another to the East, across the barrier islands. Pontoons and ferries can also keep some reduced supply flowing.
