RUSSIA'S 49TH ARMY IN KHERSON ARE TRAPPED LIKE RATS AFTER UKRAINE STRIKE A STRATEGIC BRIDGE!

 Trapped like rats: Russia's 49th army in Kherson is 'highly vulnerable' and completely cut off from other occupied territory after Ukraine strikes bridge again as counter-offensive gains momentum

• Ukraine has destroyed or damaged three main bridges out of Kherson city 
• Russian troops on west bank of Dnipro River now have no easy way of getting reinforcements or supplies from occupied territories on east bank 
• Putin's men 'highly vulnerable' to counter-attack, British intelligence has said 
• Kyiv is expected to attack the city, its first major assault of the war, soon

• Russian troops defending the city of Kherson are 'highly vulnerable' to attack after Ukraine destroyed or damaged bridges linking it with the rest of its occupied territory, British military intelligence says.

  Putin's men are now relying on pontoon bridges and ferries to move troops, vehicles and supplies across the Dnipro River after Ukraine blew up Antonovsky Bridge, which is Russia's main road route into and out of the city.

  Two other bridges - the Antonovsky Rail Bridge and Nova Khakokva hydroelectric dam bridge - have also been damaged in recent days, and are not fully operational.  

  The next-closest bridge spanning the Dnipro - Ukraine's main river which splits the country down the middle - is at Zaporizhzhia, some 130 miles from Kherson and in the middle of a city that Ukraine controls and has heavily defended.

  It means Russia has no easy way of reinforcing or resupplying its men in Kherson in the event that Ukraine attacks - a move which is expected to come soon.
