Lieutenant General named the conditions for the destruction of Kyiv bridges

State Duma deputy, reserve lieutenant general Andrei Gurulev said that destroying bridges in Ukraine is “elementarily simple.” He expressed this opinion in a conversation with Tsargrad.

According to him, a key condition for such strikes would be air supremacy, which Russian troops have not yet achieved.

Gurulev commented on reports of attacks on Kyiv bridges, which are used to transport Ukrainian military personnel and cargo, including towards Donbass. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the Northern Bridge was attacked on October 3, 4 and 6, and the Darnitsky road-railway bridge came under attack on October 2 and was closed on the same day. An attack on the strategically important South Bridge was also reported.

The general noted that to destroy such objects, first of all, accurate reconnaissance and a catalog of targets are needed, in which structures are distributed by degree of importance. He also drew attention to the role of the mass use of relatively inexpensive weapons.

According to Gurulev, modern warfare has shown that cheaper weapons can be very effective and cause significant damage to the enemy. “For example, the Geranium jet is several times cheaper and is simply not comparable to some kind of ultra-high-precision missile. And the enemy suffers no less damage from it. They also made the same “Banderol” - cheap and cheerful. And today the most important thing is mass participation,” he explained.
