Ukrainian Himars strike destroys key Kursk bridge used for Russian reinforcements

The Telegraph  

Ukrainian Himars artillery has destroyed a key bridge across a river in the Kursk region that Russia was using to reinforce its embattled soldiers. Russian military bloggers said the destruction of the road bridge across the Seym River outside the village of Glushkovo would force Russian reinforcements on a dangerous detour. “If the enemy manages to destroy all good crossings, it will cut off the entire group of the Russian Armed Forces defending in the Glushkovo district,” the Russian Telegram channel Military Observer posted. The Russian ministry of defence has not commented but Tough Kursk, a local Russian Telegram channel, confirmed the strike.
