#Ukraine's South Division stated in its morning update the bridge near the Kakhovka Hydroelectric plant was the latest hit.
Some locals report this bridge is still being used but it's probably not safe for heavy vehicles.
There are more explosions reported now in #Lyubimivka

It's likely to involve basketball star Brittney Griner, former marine Paul Whelan and illegal arms-dealer Viktor Bout.

Locals say the 'Military Committee' building has been hit. Explosions heard a long way off.
Previously these sources proved reliable. Don't know if it's a missile or partisans, but sounds too big for the Resistance.
