Russian engineers built a bridge over the Euphrates


Difficult conditions during diving operations in conditions of limited visibility, strong currents have become a feature in the construction of this bridge. During the construction, classes were held with specialists from the Syrian side, and now we are giving them the bridge into operation. They know what this structure is and how to exploit it,
told the head of the road service of the Department of transport support of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation Vladimir Buravtsev.

The construction was carried out by the 462-th separate bridge battalion of the road troops of the Russian Federation with the involvement of Russian divers.

The bridge width is 6,5 m, of which 4,2 m is a roadway, and 2,3 m is a pedestrian crossing. It is reported that earlier on this section of the river there was a ferry that could not cope with the traffic.

Thanks to our friends from Russia who built this bridge, before crossing did not meet the needs of the people. Now, residents can bring food and everything necessary for life,
the agency quotes the chairman of the security committee of the province of Deir ez-Zor Jozef Shelpi.

The Syrian authorities did not dismantle the crossing, leaving it as a backup means of transporting goods.

      If Syria is the oldest state in the world, then why didn’t it learn how to build bridges at home? winked

        The hatchet, not the hatchet, but the bridge is strategic and it would not hurt to cover the crossing with an armor.

        Not, this time, stronger built. These are good guys from Kashira. The former 17 bridge team - 53828 military unit. They sent the hundredth separate bridge battalion in 2006 to Lebanon — they sent bridges to rebuild — those that we wrecked during the Second Lebanon. All of them were then very coolly awarded orders and medals and ... dispersed. Installers and ponchiki fell under reduction, bridgework left. Now it is the 462 th separate bridge battalion of the 36194 military unit. hi

          When the gates are opened on the dam, not a single pontoon bridge can stand it. The shutter button (or whatever it is correctly called in Russian) is in the hands of Washington's allies.

            The situation has changed a little ... the allies, if not fools, will not touch the button ... or they can press the button from the shutters .. one, last, one time bully .

            This is not pontoon, but low water. So maybe it will stand.

              It is worth while the Americans do not oppose this. And the wave, if they wish, will wash away such a bridge.

        He is a pontoon. It is enough to disconnect the pontoons from one side and it will simply turn and beat to the fixed side of the shore. And as the water comes down, put the tug in place. And this, often dumping reservoirs - you will sweat and then fill them.

      Military engineers are only quickly accustomed to erect crossings; they have a standard.
      The most complicated Crimean bridge was built quite quickly, which means civilians can, if they want to.

        In order for civilians to start building as military men, they must be put in wartime conditions, and this is not such a simple event. One decree is not enough.

    What will we wait until the “enemies burn their home hut” and destroy the next bridge?
