Ukrainian forces destroyed a bridge over the Seim River in the Glushkovsky district in Russia's Kursk Oblast, Alexey Smirnov, the region's acting governor, claimed on Aug. 16.
The unprecedented operation hit its 10-day mark on Aug. 15, with Kyiv claiming to have seized 1,150 square kilometers of Russian territory and 82 settlements, including the town of Sudzha.
Photos purporting to show the destroyed bridge were published by the Russian Telegram channel Mash, which claimed the bridge had been struck multiple times.
The channel also claimed that about 30 settlements near the village of Glushkovo, approximately 150 kilometers (93 miles) from Kursk, have been "cut off" due to the attack.
Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk posted later a video, showing the attack on the Russian bridge.
"Ukraine's Air Force aviation is actively participating in combat operations in the Kursk sector. Ukrainian pilots are conducting precision strikes on enemy's strongholds, equipment concentrations, as well as on enemy's logistics hubs and supply routes," he said.
The Insider reported that the Glushkovsky district has three bridges across the Seim River, with the other two located near the settlements of Zvannoe and Karyzh.
Roman Alyokhin, an advisor to Kursk Oblast's acting governor and a Russian pro-war blogger, also claimed that Ukrainian forces are targeting the bridge in Zvannoe, about 7 kilometers (4 miles) from Glushkovo, in an attempt to seize part of Kursk Oblast along the river.

Matters little in a ground war. Their hopes lie in the fact when the war is over ( quite possibly Odessa returned to Russia), Russia’s Navy will be ill equipped to prevent the collective West’s Navy from patrolling the Black Sea.
It’s a fantasy, Turkey will never let the US Navy in. Post war Rump Ukraine will be landlocked.

The German Nazis perished in the eastern frog, the Ukie Nazis are suffering the same fate.
Thank you for the detailed map. This is a terrible war - as you say - how many lives will be lost? I regret every single one of them.

Vlad is hosting the Brics Summit in St Petersburg in October, the 78 attending countries will be there to meet him.
All eyes on the Brics Summit. It will be historic.
Three Himars vaporized, 13 Atacms same, Patriots unconfirmed ( as is General Srysky’s demise)….developing.
I’m not a pro-Putin poster or a troll. I am a historian. As such, I say that invasions of Russia always start in summer, always seem like a good idea at the time, and always go well at the start. The problems arrive later.
One day, the Europeans will wake up and find that a powerful new Ottoman Empire is right on their doorstep, and they will have to compromise with it. It is better if Russia has the Crimea than Turkey.
Thank you for the link.
Zeepers care more about bridges in a foreign, corrupt hell hole 5000+ miles away, than they care about the ongoing destruction of this country...AMERICA.
Oh, BTW, nice try.<<<<
You're right about one thing and wrong about the other.
Yes, I'll NEVER shut up about AMERICA.
And, no it wasn't me who got your foulmouthed comment pulled. Apparently someone else doesn't think the use of the F word is acceptable.
Typical zeeper pig.
Sad how you lie so easily. Typical Democrat.
The Brics M Bridge “Unit “ is to be backed very specifically 40 percent physically held Gold, ( not in the ground, unmined or theoretical), 60 percent commodities holdings, no debt or “ faith” at all, only tangible assets. 75 percent of the world’s population will use it in Settlements, which will be instantaneous ( electronic).
Wake up people, why are the entire world’s Central Banks ( except for the US) making historic Gold purchases? …and why do they ALL now have “ Gold revaluation “ accounts?
The Brics “ Unit” will displace the USD and become the most widely used instrument in Settlements.
This is above the average person’s understanding, but well under way.
Here is the latest, more details to be unveiled at the Brics Summit.

“ The UNIT white paper
Abstract…..”
Next education:
https://www.mining.com/web/gold-revaluation-the-hidden-motive-behind-central-banks-gold-buying/
GRA’s ( gold revaluation accounts) will counter balance ( decrease the unsustainable debt holdings) the debt which will give much more time to unwind it all. Ask why do all the Central Banks in tge world now have GRA’s?
The Unit will not kill the USD completely but will make it just another irrelevant currency. Much has been written about the new “ Unit”, and with the BIS and IMF instating law that by Jan 2023, Gold has now become , BY LAW a TIER ONE ASSET….MSM covers little of this.
Is it the “ end”? No, doing what the entire world’s sovereign Central Banks are doing will insure you come out the other side- BUY GOLD!
I understand most simply do not understand it all, and those that do not act will take a terrible haircut on all USD denominated holdings.
You can thank me later.
