Ukraine Destroys Two of Putin’s Bridges by Blowing Up Hidden Ammo Caches

The bridges were located in the Belgorod region, near Ukraine’s Kharkiv.

Ukraine Uses $600 Drones to Hit Key Bridges in Russia

Ukrainian forces managed to destroy two important bridges across the Russian border using cheap, first-person-view (FPV) drones.

The bridges were located in the Belgorod region, near Ukraine’s Kharkiv.

This operation shows how low-cost tech is changing the face of modern warfare.

Russian Forces Had Stockpiled Mines Under the Bridges

According to Ukraine’s military, Russian troops had hidden a large amount of ammunition and anti-tank mines under the bridges.

This was likely done in case of a Ukrainian offensive.

Ukraine used this to its advantage in a surprise counter-strike.

Suspicious Activity First Raised Red Flags

Members of Ukraine’s 58th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade noticed something odd.

“It was clear that something was happening there,” a brigade representative told CNN.

This suspicion prompted a closer investigation of the area.

Drones Could Not Fly Normally Under the Bridge

Standard surveillance drones failed due to signal loss under the bridge.

Instead, Ukraine deployed a fiber-optic FPV drone to complete the mission.

This technical workaround helped them identify the Russian explosives.

Drone Footage Captures the Critical Moment

One drone recorded the entire mission as it flew toward the first bridge.

It captured video of the hidden mine stacks just before impact.

The video ends as the drone hits the explosives and triggers a huge blast.

A Second Bridge Is Also Targeted and Destroyed

After success at the first location, the unit decided to investigate a second bridge nearby.

“We found that it was also mined and we struck,” said the Ukrainian military.

This second explosion further disrupted Russian logistics in the area.

Explosions Confirmed in Russian Belgorod Region

CNN geolocated the drone strike to Russia’s Belgorod region.

This area has seen increased military traffic and supplies for Russia’s war in Ukraine.

The blasts delivered a strategic setback to Russian supply lines.

Ukraine Turns Russian Plans Against Them

The Ukrainian soldiers saw a rare opportunity and seized it.

“We discovered an opportunity and took advantage of it,” the brigade stated.

By using the enemy’s own mines, Ukraine dealt a powerful and low-cost blow.
