West’s rockets blast bridge to cut off key Russian supply lines

- By James Franey Europe Correspond­ent

LONG-RANGE rockets from the West helped Ukraine cut off a key bridge and block supply routes for Moscow’s forces.

Blasts hit the Antonovsky bridge over the Dnipro river – the only crossing into the Russian-controlled southern city of Kherson yesterday.

Embarrassi­ngly, the Russians shot down one of their own Ka-52 Alligator helicopter­s in Kherson after it mistakenly fired at their own troops.

They were thanked by the Ukrainians for their ‘gesture of goodwill’.

A Kyiv spokesman warned the Russian military: ‘Occupiers should learn how to swim across the Dnipro River.’
