Russian forces destroyed the Antonovsky Bridge and pontoon crossings after completing troop withdrawal to prevent Ukrainian pursuit.

Russian media and correspondents reported that the Antonivka Road Bridge was blown up by Russian occupiers during their retreat from Kherson.

A makeshift pontoon bridge next to the Antonivka Road Bridge was also destroyed as Russian special forces retreated on foot.

Kherson was liberated by Ukrainian forces in the autumn of 2022, following a period of Russian occupation marked by atrocities.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) liberated Kherson from Russian occupation on Nov. 11.

As a result of accurate strikes by the Defense Forces on the headquarters of the Russian occupying forces in the settlement of Chervony Maiak, more than 30 occupants were killed, 2 tanks and 4 trucks were destroyed.
