DeirEzzor24 exclusive report:

The correspondent of the Russian battalion guarding the floating Russian bridge that connects the town of Al-Mariya and Marat said that they have been on alert for several days.

He added that for several days the militants have been firing live bullets at the floating waste on the surface of the Euphrates River, after news of the presence of mines floating in the water threatening to detonate the Russian bridge, with the aim of detonating them before they reach it.

The new earthen bridge that connects the town of Al-Husayniyyah with the city of Deir Ezzor includes, in addition to the metal pipes, a piece of a metal and wooden bridge with a length of 20 meters. It is the remains of the Halabiya and Zalabiya bridges from the northern side, and is the most abundant and allows the passage of floating materials towards the Russian bridge.
