Beskrestnov alerta que ferries e pontões não substituem as pontes de Kiev se a Rússia as destruir

Porque é importante

Os ataques russos às pontes sobre o Dnipro provocaram encerramentos, alterações nas rotas de transporte público e一号 transporte disruption. Although ferries and pontoon crossings can support emergency deliveries, their limited capacity and vulnerable access roads make them insufficient as a permanent substitute. Alternative crossings, a tunnel and stronger air and missile defences are therefore presented as responses to the risk of further destruction of critical transport infrastructure.

O que aconteceu

A_RETIM: Russia began attacking Kyiv's Dnieper bridges in October, causing closures, traffic restrictions and a transport collapse. A missile attack in the night of 6-7 November damaged the road surface and power line of the Northern Bridge, after which traffic was closed in both directions and public transport routes were changed. On 6 November, a second lane opened on the Southern Bridge in the direction from the left bank to the right bank, while traffic in the opposite direction remained limited to one lane.

On 15 November, Serhii Beskrestnov said ferry and pontoon crossings could not fully replace the bridges if all existing crossings were destroyed. He described a ferry crossing at Kyiv's scale as an emergency measure for important cargo, noting its limited capacity and the vulnerability of its piers and access roads. A pontoon crossing, in his assessment, needs access roads and interchanges, can help in a critical situation but could be disrupted by a single Shahed.

Beskrestnov also said Kyiv needs a tunnel under the Dnieper not only as a military facility but for civilian needs, while acknowledging that construction with foreign support would take several years and cost tens of billions of hryvnias.

Meanwhile, Infrastructure Minister Mykola Kalashnyk said Ukraine planned 21 alternative bridge crossings, with construction already under way in Kyiv. He reported that eight crossings would duplicate the existing bridges and that two of them were to be launched by the end of February. According to his estimates, the eight crossings could carry 30-40% of the traffic on the current Kyiv bridges. Mayor Vitalii Klitschko also announced 1 billion hryvnias for combined crossings.

Como o descrevem as fontes ucranianas

A cobertura ucraniana centra-se na vulnerabilidade das infraestruturas de ferry e de pontão, incluindo os cais expostos, as vias de acesso, as rotundas e a capacidade de um único Shahed para inutilizar uma travessia de pontão. Como resposta, são apresentados as travessias alternativas, um túnel sob o Dnipro, o financiamento municipal e o reforço das defesas aéreas e antiaéreas. Os官员 são citados sobre as funções militar e civil do túnel e sobre a necessidade de financiamento estrangeiro.

Contexto

A Rússia começou a atacar as pontes de Kiev sobre o Dnipro em outubro. Um ataque de mísseis contra a Ponte Norte danificou o pavimento e a linha elétrica, após o que o trânsito foi totalmente interrompido nos dois sentidos e as rotas do transporte público foram alteradas. A segunda faixa da Ponte Sul, aberta em 6 de novembro, Sheppard_enabled no sentido da margem esquerda para a direita, mantendo-se uma faixa no sentido inverso. Aalleries增幅Ukraine planeia 21 travessias alternativas, com obras já iniciadas em Kiev. Kiev anunciou mil milhões de grivnias para travessias combinadas, e o túnel sob o Dnipro foi apresentado como uma opção militar e civil que exige investidores estrangeiros.
