The role of military bridges in military-civilian operations is very important. The introductory part briefly discusses the classification of military bridges and their brief history of development, highlighting the importance of military bridges during hostilities. The main part discribes the usage of military-engineering subdivisions, in particular, military bridges, during civilian military operations, such as their use in the elimination of natural or technogenic disasters. The article discusses examples of the use of military bridges in the last part of the history of Georgia, their importance during the liquidation of the crisis, such as: the use of a military bridge (КМ-02Т) in the construction of IDP settlements in the post-war Georgia, the use of infrastructure damaged by the Nenskra River in the Svaneti region, and the use of spinal bridges over the Terg River in Kazbegi Municipality. The use of military bridges is one of the best examples of military civilian operations.
