[Vesti] A strike on the Crimean bridge is now impossible, since there is nothing to "shoot" to it. But the very desire to hit him is more than legitimate, says Aleksey Arestovich, adviser to the head of the OP, summing up the results of the 135th day of the war together with journalist Feygin. Recall that today NATO Commander General Philip Breedlove named the Crimean Bridge a legitimate target for the Armed Forces of Ukraine .

"As HIMARS, M270 approaches, we will move on to such goals ... If Breedlove wants to shoot across the bridge, then I respect this desire in him. Every honest person wants to shoot across the Crimean bridge, but will we shoot? It's real, no problems to drag it somewhere there, find a place in the Zaporozhye region that reaches the Krymsky bridge and fire a rocket from a ground-based installation... But how many of those missiles do we have? And what damage will they inflict on the Krymsky bridge? Shouldn't they be reserved for surface targets? These are big questions. There are no answers yet," the adviser said.

Arestovich also told how the Ukrainian military repelled an enemy attack on Slavyansk. Here the Russian invaders lost a tank company and more than 200 members of the personnel. " An attempt to storm failed to zero ," Arestovich stressed.

"Our guys hung in Bogorodichnoye very strongly when trying to advance. This is the direction from Izyum to Slavyansk. Tanks filled up about 12, a tank company. In total yesterday (I am informed) 35 tanks were filled up. I don’t know whether to believe it or not, but ours do not lie. This is a little more than a tank battalion," Arestovich explained.

On this occasion, the adviser involuntarily punned. “ In general, they repelled the Russian attack. There are more than "two hundredths." The attempt to storm failed to zero. They tried to move and look at the potential of this movement. Well, they were shown the potential," Arestovich said.

"Two hundreds" in his vocabulary are corpses; "cargo 200", as in the Soviet, and then the Russian army, they call the bodies of their military.

Arestovich also said that a document was being prepared that would make it easier for Ukrainian men to travel abroad. In particular, the government is preparing a document that will allow Ukrainian sailors to travel abroad to work on contracts. But he is also convinced that in order to restore the economy, the borders for temporary exit will soon be as open as possible - not only for seafarers. “ There is no need to be afraid that everyone will run away from us. I respect my people too much to believe that everyone will run away from the draft. And if they do, then, frankly, they are needed in the army with such motivation ,” the adviser added.
