Where do Russian pontoons "disappear" in Kurshchyna?

✅Operators of the Special Operations Forces together with units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine accurately destroy them.

The video shows the effective impressions of SOF operators of enemy engineering equipment in the Kursk region, as well as the detection and correction of HIMARS fire on bridges and pontoon crossings.

In addition, together with the Defense Forces of Ukraine, an accumulation of equipment, a field warehouse of B/K, PMM, an electronic warfare complex, and a 152-mm D-20 gun were struck and destroyed.

It's wild the amount of footage we have from this conflict, to the point where fire fights sometimes have multiple camera angles, including aerial and first person footage.

Wow that is a wild fucking weapon.

But craziness aside, is that the best use of a HIMARS? It doesn't look like it took much out other than the bridge, and I have to imagine they have other ordinance that can take out a temporary pontoon bridge?

Edit: If thats all they had within range then sure, that's all they had. I think I'm just surprised they didn't use something else if they had it?

Would guess they are trying to puncture whatever keeps the pontoons afloat. I know nothing about the bridge pontoons though, but seen plenty of helicopters with lots of holes in them
