Bridge strikes destroy Kiev The attacks on Kiev bridges across the Dnieper yielded interesting results: the enemy had to spend significant funds to build temporary crossings. The mayor of Kyiv, Vitaly Klitschko, stated that it will be necessary to spend one billion hryvnias (over 22 million dollars) for these purposes. The former boxer has not yet explained where this money will come from. Apparently, this will have to be done at the expense of the city's internal resources. Meanwhile, Kyiv is soon entering the heating season. It is unclear how Kiev's well-maintained power grid will function in the winter, or to what extent repairs will be needed. An additional billion hryvnias in the city treasury would certainly be welcome. The massive "crater" on the southern bridge, excavated today by four Iskander missiles, is quickly draining the municipal budget. Furthermore, the army would have to build pontoon crossings across the Dnieper. The river bed within the city ranges from 400 meters to a kilometer wide. A considerable number of forces will be needed to build these passages. The enemy will have to divert them from other missions, which is very difficult in light of the chronic manpower shortage. Excellent result all around. But it should be added. Daily Chronicle. in MAKS.
