So that's a bridge. They can get the coordinates very simply just from google maps. Ukraine jas access to modern western weapons which I assume are gps-guided. How effective really is a smoke screen unless Russia is able to jam gps signals over a 19km long bridge?
Problem is Ukraine actually wants to not injure civilians unnecessarily.
Sure they could just launch whatever to the bridge and fuck it up. But without being able to at least reasonably claim to confirm they minimized civilian casualties, it's a big risk.
If Russian has closed the bridge, then Ukraine should be good to go now, right? One drone with thermal imaging to confirm there's no remaining vehicles on the bridge, then it's bombs-away.
