00:00In a major blow to Kremlin forces stationed near the Ukraine-Russia border, Ukrainian

00:05forces have reportedly destroyed a critical bridge in Russia's Kursk region, potentially

00:10trapping Russian troops on the wrong side of the same river.

00:14The attack, which occurred in broad daylight, targeted a strategically important concrete

00:18bridge that connects the region.

00:21The strike was carried out by Ukraine's Korn Group, a tactical drone unit, which released

00:26footage of the operation on September 8th.

00:29Some footage shows three precision strikes on the already damaged central section of

00:33the bridge.

00:35The first two hits scattered cluster munitions across the bridge and into the river, while

00:39the third delivered a direct, powerful explosion.

00:43After the attack, the bridge was deemed unusable for vehicles.

00:48Ukrainian military sources have since released a Russian dashcam video that appears to show

00:52the strike from a driver's perspective.

00:55The bridge is located near the village of Koryaz in Kursk, a settlement southeast of

01:00the same river.

01:01According to earlier reports, the bridge was previously damaged by Ukrainian strikes but

01:06remained passable for small civilian vehicles, although it was risky.

01:11As of Monday, however, it seems the bridge can only be crossed on foot or by bicycle

01:16and is now impassable for any larger vehicles.

01:20This destruction of the bridge comes amid Ukraine's ambitious offensive into Russia's

01:24Kursk region, which began on August 6th.

01:28In just over a month, Ukraine has captured hundreds of Russian prisoners and secured

01:32a stretch of territory around 25 by 55 kilometers in size.

01:38The offensive has left some Russian troops isolated as their only routes back cross three

01:42bridges over the same river.

01:45Ukrainian forces have heavily targeted these crossings and by August 20th, two of the bridges

01:50had been completely destroyed.

01:53The recent attack has now rendered the third bridge inoperable.

01:57The munitions used in this latest strike appear similar to US-made M-30G MLRS rockets, though

02:03this hasn't been conclusively confirmed.

02:07Ukraine also has Soviet-era rocket artillery and some airdropped cluster bombs from Western

02:11allies.

02:13While Ukraine's military hasn't specifically commented on the isolated Russian forces,

02:18they have confirmed that their offensive in the Kursk region is progressing as planned.

02:23In earlier attacks, Ukrainian intelligence confirmed the use of US-supplied HIMARS rockets

02:28to target the same river bridges.

02:31Since mid-August, Russian engineers have attempted to build pontoon bridges over the same.

02:37Ukrainian forces have reportedly destroyed these temporary crossings whenever they've

02:41been spotted.

02:42The same river itself is at least 20 meters wide and too deep to wade across, although

02:47small boats or swimming could provide alternative crossing methods.

02:52Some reports suggest that up to 3,000 Russian troops are now trapped in a pocket of land

02:57roughly 30 kilometers wide and 20 kilometers deep.

03:01However, according to a statement from Russia's defense ministry, their troops in the Kursk

03:05region continue to defend their positions.
