Dwelling for three days at Kamikaze-post in the heart of Eastern-Ukrainian warzone, Postimees reporter Jaanus Piirsalu ventured to shoot some pictures of a strategic nearby check-point Bridge – under the half-finished Donetsk roundabout.

The bridge is ideal protection for soldiers: solid concrete, shells and Grad-rockets will not break through. On the other hand, the high elevated bridge is an excellent watchtower. At that, Bridge also serves as vital access to Donetsk Airport, located in its immediate vicinity.
