Chonhar Bridge

About

Chonhar Bridge (Chonharski mosty), also transliterated from Russian as Chongar Bridge (Chongarskiye mosty), is a road bridge that crosses the Chonhar Strait and is part of the M18 Highway. There is also an older, now unused road bridge a few dozen meters away. The bridge is part of what has been dubbed the Highway of Death in 2026, due to frequent Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian military vehicles. There is also a rail bridge and causeway that traverses the Syvash a few kilometres to the west and is sometimes referred to as 'Chongar Bridge'.
