How long before the Ukrainian video comes out to prove "that's just a defensive smokescreen" is lie number... Shit, the lie counter has reached its limit and rolled over.

The smoke is white so the defence smoke is probably true, but not all the smoke is white.

Of course not. We have different colors to confuse the enemy and shot down every missle. Nothing hit through our air defense. The bridge is undamaged.

Some of the smoke was minor debris from where a missle hit the bridge.

Despite the multiple impacts, the bridge is still usable. The attack means nothing. The bridge will be repaired by the end of the week.
