As I see a lot of comments that it’s not an Antonovsky bridge and rather a suspension bridge.
- It is an Antonovsky bridge and cable above most likely is an electricity cable located close to the camera.

New photo of damage to the bridge
ANTONOVSKY BRIDGE 🧵

-Damage is visible on the other side of the bridge as well. I assume this damage was caused during strikes on barges. (Barges are located very close to the bridge which makes it harder to aim)

Locals report that the barge bridge was disassembled by Russians. One of theories is that it’s due to the fact that a bunch of other barges which Russians used as ferries were destroyed by Ukrainian strikes.

(1/8) In Sweden, nuns from the St. Elisabeth Convent, originally based in Belarus, embedded in 20 churches, worked for Russian intelligence and raised funds for the Russian army while posing as a charity.
(2/8) This exposure forced the Swedish Church to issue an official warning to other Catholic communities, stating that nuns of the St. Elisabeth Monastery direct their earnings toward supporting Russian nationalism and Moscow’s aggression against Ukraine, while maintaining close ties to the GRU.
In Sweden, those nuns became known as the “Z-nuns.”
(3/8) What Z-nuns sold as “souvenirs” in Swedish churches actually served as a funding tool for Russian military units.
Thus proceeds from the sales were channelled directly towards supporting Russia's war effort.
