P-800 Onyx missiles hit the bridge in Odessa Zatoka

July 21 2023

Today, unexpectedly, the traditional night strikes with precision-guided weapons on the port infrastructure of Odessa were supplemented by a daytime missile attack. As reported, the P-800 Onyx missiles of the Bastion coastal anti-ship complex attacked the bridge on Zatoka from the territory of Crimea.

Local media talk about two waves of rockets with a difference of 15 minutes. The results of the strike will be known later, however, according to some information, the bridge has been destroyed.

It plays an important role in the logistics of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, primarily for the supply of Western weapons. In the area of the bridge, weapons and ammunition depots are being organized for their further transportation to the combat zone. Judging by the intensity of the strikes, the Russian army seriously took up the port infrastructure after act of terrorism on the Crimean bridge and the completion of the grain deal.

Retribution strikes have been inflicted for the fourth day, and today for the first time in the daytime. It should be noted that it was this morning that the speaker of the Ukrainian Air Force, Yuriy Ignat, announced the impossibility of the Ukrainian air defense to intercept the Onyx missiles, which were used on the bridge in Zatoka during the day. According to Ignat, Onyxes fly too fast and drop to a height of only 10-15 meters on approach, which makes them a very difficult air target for air defense.

Recall that the Black Sea Fleet and the Russian Aerospace Forces launched retaliation strikes on July 18 in response to a terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge. For the past four days, the RF Armed Forces have methodically destroys port infrastructure in the Odessa and Nikolaev regions, as well as strikes at other strategically important facilities in southern Ukraine.

Previously, all attacks took place at night, but today the RF Armed Forces unexpectedly changed tactics. Probably, Ukrainian air defense is no longer a hindrance to strikes at any time. At 11:25 Moscow time, repeated rocket launches were recorded.

And what were they waiting for all this time, watching how weapons were transported and silent? These attacks of retribution will not return the bridge, and the cruiser Moscow will not be raised from the bottom. Dancing with a tambourine.

  Well, the General Staff, probably, "analyzed it in general" and decided: We will not fire at the bridges (!) ... you see, the Ukrainians will understand and will not plot against the Crimean bridge either! Security? What about security? Still love it! Tea is not the first time! Again, there is some reason: either he didn’t drink, then he drank too much, then the woman left for her mother-in-law, then the young neighbor urgently invited her to visit! And so, suddenly "amicably" and agree!

    Personally, I'm not very interested in the model of family relationships in your family.
    And your "general analysis" probably only worries the drunk Vasya from the next entrance, waiting for you with the right "booze".

When you like will be able to give a good answer to the question :)

Well, they destroyed it. And then cross the Dnieper on "tunics inflated with a bubble"? Or did you decide to give Poland and NATO a gift on the right bank? The Belarusian KGB is not on you! /neighing/ :)

  And why did you decide that when the time comes for us to force the Dnieper, the Ukrainians will leave it to us? They will take it down themselves before retreating.

    Ukrainians will not be able to demolish the Dnieper by itself, with all their desire.
    They can demolish only bridges-crossings over it, but this is fixable.
    Ole-ole-ole-ole!

    Did the Soviet troops blow up many bridges in 1941? Sometimes the "Brandenburg-800" was optional. Enough of the usual mess.

      Do not believe modern cinema, the effectiveness of the Brandenburg-800 is greatly exaggerated. One important bridge was captured in the Baltics, and the most famous operation was the capture of Maikop, under the guise of NKVD soldiers, by Baron von Felksamer

How many have already flown over this bridge, and are still in work, it’s simply amazing, more than a dozen for NVO for sure, including a marine drone.

They hit the terminals, not the bridge. The bridge is intact.

Putin hung another piece of paper on a carnation, this time "grain". I wonder how much Kargil and Monsant grain and oil is left in Ukraine? The gentlemen of the Americans were in a burnout, but this harvest is no longer theirs ... The agreements had to be observed. Yes, and different journalists will stop talking about "retribution", work has begun. Finally.

Most likely, there was just an agreement between the interested parties of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Russian Federation, or "an agreement", as angry patriots say.

The bridge is really safe and sound. But even its destruction will not stop the work of the Danube ports, because there are branches (to Berezino-Izmail, Reni, Giurgiulesti) from the Moldovan railway and there is a northern passage from Moldova to Ukraine. Everything works, the rails are humming, the General Staff of the Russian Federation is "analyzing".

Misunderstanding. Why don't they touch the Yuzhny port? Again, deal?
And as for the bridge, two aunts with machine guns, who inadvertently saved Sevastopol, were simply not enough.

A strike on the bridge in Zatoka is very good, but why aren't strikes on the rest of the railway bridges and tunnels in Ukraine? Would that immediately radically change the situation on the battlefield in favor of our army? Maybe there are already enough agreements and deals on the blood of a Russian soldier? And another hero of the Donbass, Strelkov, was arrested in Moscow, who defended the interests of Russia in the Donbass with weapons in his hands. A very alarming sign, apparently, another "obscene peace" is being prepared, or rather, a small truce, which is necessary for the West to restore the work of industry and pump Ukraine with the most modern weapons. Strelkov has spoken about this many times since 2014, arguing that there can be no peace with fascist Ukraine. The actual destruction of Wagner as a combat unit, the dismissal of the most capable generals - Popov, Teplinsky, etc. and now the "fifth column" strikes another blow, now against the patriotic forces of Russia, and before that there was the murder of Stremousov - even a criminal case was not opened

according to some information, the bridge is destroyed

If our means of objective control, including the satellite constellation, are not able to determine whether the bridge has been destroyed or not, it becomes clearer why our artillery and aviation are releasing ammunition "somewhere in the direction of the enemy" - if the destroyed bridge cannot be distinguished from the surviving one, then "accumulations of manpower and armored vehicles of the enemy", which hit us dozens a day, exist exclusively in Konashenkov's reports.

Even if you are absolutely right, I also mentioned the usual mess. When not like "Brandenburg". and even ordinary motorcyclists didn’t have to strain too much.
