Satellite images from @GarbuzYe and @cyber_boroshno show multiple bridges hit by the Ukrainians (especially in Crimea), forcing Russian forces to put pontoon bridges.

All bridges leading to Crimea have been hit, most of those cannot be used.

Additionnaly, key railway link from Crimea to mainland southern Ukraine has been cut with strikes on 3 bridges.

Other bridges have been targeted on the strategic Rostov-Melitopol road.

Last week, multiple strikes hit trucks crossing the pontoon bridges in Chonhar, which shows that hitting the bridges had some impacts.

On key highways, forcing large trucks into smaller roads makes their targeting easier and complicate all the road logistics.

The Rostov-Crimea "Novorrosia" land bridge remains the most heavily targeted road. There is no other alternative road and trucks and vehicles continue to be hit, especially around Melitopol and Mariupol.

Alternative roads are often targeted as well. Fuel trucks are the piority.

There is now a real fuel penury for both occupied territories, but also for frontline units.

To counter this, russian troops are escorting fuel convoys with canon-air defense. This strategy has already seen its limits, with barely any video of successful defense but multiple videos of targeting of these air-defense trucks.

The last few days, Kherson oblast has been more and more isolated by Ukrainian strikes. Many trucks are hit daily on the secondary route going through Chaplynka.

Here is a zoom for the central part of Donbas. Luhansk-Donetsk road is highly targeted.

Remember as well that I count here only mid-range strikes, so around 20km from the frontline.

The Donetsk-Mariupol road, continue to be hit regularly, as well as all key roads leading to Donetsk. One can understand that we have only ~15/20% of all the 784 hits geolocated, so the map gives only a snapshot of the real situation.
