You can discount his opinion all you want. The videos show that the bridge is wrecked and impassible.
Let's see Ukraine actually conduct a successful offensive when facing opposition.
They already have on small scales. They don't need to launch a Barbarossa, they only need to chip away at the Russians north of the Dnieper until the Russians decide that holding is untenable and withdraw just like they did from Kiev.
Putin would just mobilize and take over the whole thing.
If Putin could have mobilized, he would have done it early on once it became clear Russia could not win by ordinary means in March. He hasn't because he thinks he can't, because he knows if he tried, the Russian people would revolt and his government would collapse. Russia has already been scraping the barrel for manpower every way it can.

If that is the case, then it is so for now.

Their decimated army is in no position to launch an offensive. Particularly when the Russians restart theirs.

I'm sure the Ukrainians will give him the gift of doing more stupid things, like shelling Russian territory or attacking Crimea.
But I never said that it is just Ukraine that's shelling another country. Obviously, Mariupol was not shelled by Ukraine. The point is that Ukraine is not as pure as innocent as the corrupt Western countries will have you believe.
And everything between them (the Chernihiv and Sumy regions).
All the dead Russian soldiers left behind (some still being discovered, like these in Chernihiv: https://news.yahoo.com/two-russian-tanks-dead-crew-101700467.html - you can find uncensored pics of them after months in water, including weeks when the territory was under Russian control but their "friends" just left them right where they fell from a pontoon bridge) would be probably surprised at your opinion they didn't take "front towards the enemy" to the heart, even after having copied the Claymore mines as the MON-50.
Not sure what you mean. Surely you accept that the Russians abandon the northern fronts, so Ukraine taking it is not exactly evidence of its fighting genius.
I can't tell if the main structural elements are actually damaged, or if what he's circled is just a piece of fallen decking. If he's right about what that is, he's right that the bridge is out of commission for a long while.
Sorry, I don't take Ukraine bots seriously, even if they claim to be 'structural engineers'.

Won't happen, and if it did, Putin would just mobilize and take over the whole thing.

That's funny that you think only one country can be shelling another. Do you know that quote from Sir Bomber Harris?
(aka DJ Harris https://youtu.be/3_QY3xsLQNI)
I am perfectly aware of Butcher Harris.
But I never said that it is just Ukraine that's shelling another country. Obviously, Mariupol was not shelled by Ukraine. The point is that Ukraine is not as pure as innocent as the corrupt Western countries will have you believe.
They've liberated most of the north.
Anyway it's the second thread about this bridge, and I don't even think this is a place for threads like that.
Otherwise I'd be spamming them lol
(I do miss modding /r/combatfootage)
They have taken the region around Kiev and occupied the region around Kharkov, yes, but that's why I stated 'when facing opposition'.
(And it's still not me downvoting you. Most people here are pro-Russia who can't stand to hear any disagreement.)
