At first, the Russian air force began to massively hit Ukrainian targets with half-ton FAB-500 bombs. Then we saw widespread use of one-tonne FAB-1000 bombs, and now attacks on Ukraine's key infrastructure with the devastating 1.5-tonne FAB-1500 bombs are becoming more frequent. These munitions are being fitted with conversion kits to become precision guided bombs with extended range.
This time it seems that the Russian air force used such a FAB-1500 smart bomb to destroy a Ukrainian railway bridge. A military analyst does not rule out the possibility that such attacks are becoming increasingly frequent on Ukrainian territory.
The attack on the Ukrainian railway bridge was recorded and published on social media. It did not take long before it went viral and was commented on by many, experts and non-specialists alike. According to the footage, we see the Russian bomb accurately hitting the infrastructure, while experts from Russia confirm that it is a 1.5 ton weapon.
The information about a Russian attack on a Ukrainian railway bridge has also been confirmed by Ukrainian sources, but its name and location remain unknown.
Military expert Yuri Knutov from Russia revealed on MK why the Russian military has avoided such attacks in the past. According to the Russian, "in order to use powerful explosive aerial bombs, the aircraft must first reach the target," implying that such missions should have been carried out after the Russians had first destroyed Ukrainian air defenses, which he implies has been done.
However, we should point out that the page states that the explosion of one FAB-1500 bomb is equivalent to that caused by three Russian Iskander ballistic missiles.

In other recent news, retired US Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis said that the military and financial support offered by the US to Kiev has not borne fruit, so "there is no reason to expect a victory for the Ukrainian armed forces".
"The US sent five thousand armored vehicles, billions of dollars and I'm not even including what Europe has offered. We did everything, however it did not help to move the front backwards. Why are there still people who believe that something will change in the future?" asks the retired military man, suggesting that it is time to stop this Western campaign of support for Kiev.
