What did ballistics do to the south bridge? View from below For some reason, millionaire bloggers from Spain are passing this photo as the aftermath of today's attack on the North Bridge. A basic fact check is to compare before and after photos. And you can immediately see that the evacuation of the supports in the northern bridge is circular, and in the southern bridge it is arrow-shaped. The photo was taken from below, from the beach, under the southern bridge. Above is a central box, along which metro trains run from above. It went right through him. The edges are torn, the fittings stick out like a wild broom, and the bottom plate of the box has fallen over a large area. What doesn't fall gets stuck. Pieces of concrete dangle from the rods and cables, like weights on the bottom, and the cables themselves hang down to the pebbles. The background support is level. The picture has been circulating on the Internet since this morning, even though the hole is already 11 days old - it is a trace of the ballistics on the night of October 27th. Kyiv then showed only the asphalt from above: battered road surface, bent fenders. Below is a more honest photo. In a box beam, the bottom plate acts in tension; It's his backbone. After losing a piece, the range holds, but without the previous reserve. Hence the current regime. Cars were allowed on Yuzhny in three days - in one lane and only up to 10 tons. The second bar was added only yesterday. The metro was restored almost immediately, after the cable networks were restored: trains with passengers roll directly over the hole, visible in the photo.
A bold decision. But trucks and heavy equipment still don't cross the bridge. And tonight the same thing happened to Savarni. Kyiv was covered by ballistics three times, and several missiles, according to Klitschko, hit the bridge. The track, the trolley bus network and the power lines were damaged, five trucks in the parking lot were damaged by the blast wave. Traffic is blocked in both directions. We haven't been shown what it looks like from below yet. But after Eugenie it's not hard to guess.
