The Russian Army’s 120th Artillery Brigade on March 25 released a video recording the scene of soldiers from this unit attacking a bridge in the town of Makiivka, Eastern Ukraine.

In the posted video, the strategic bridge at Makiivka exploded violently and collapsed after being hit by Russian artillery shells.

The recently destroyed bridge at Makiivka is said to be of strategic significance to Ukrainian forces in the Lugansk separatist region.

Since the end of December 2022, the Ukrainian army has continuously organized attacks against the Russian-controlled city of Kremmina.

Kreminna is located on the main route connecting Lysychansk and Sievierodonetsk and is only about 20km from these two cities.

Facing the resistance efforts of the Russian army and the Lugansk separatist militia, Ukraine’s goal of controlling Kremmina has not yet been completed.

To support Ukraine’s counterattack, Western allies have continuously sent more heavy weapons to President Volodymyr Zelensky’s army.

Previously, in May 2022, 7 Mi-24D attack helicopters were handed over to the Ukrainian army by the Czech Republic.
