Baise ton pont!
The pictures are actually of the Henichesky bridge, whereas the confirmed SCALP was actually for the Chongar bridge; I'm only guessing that they were both SCALPs.
Here's a Reuters article on the strikes.

It's good to see Russian supply infrastructure being hit, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed in the damage being done by Storm Shadow / SCALP. As I understood it, these were intended to hit bunkers and bridges, yet three(?) strikes on Chongar later and it doesn't seem to be seriously damaged. Part of that is that might be that the missiles seem to have hit over the land portion of the bridge instead of over the water (maybe intentional?).
At least the Henichesky bridge seems more damaged. It seems like they'll at least have to replace that span.
