Rodan's Saikai Bridge

Citizens evacuating via the Saikai Bridge in Rodan.

As one of the two Rodans approached Sasebo City, the J.S.D.F. ordered civilians to evacuate the city by crossing the bridge. As people ran for their lives to the awaiting buses at the other side, a Rodan soared under the bridge's massive arch and tore the bridge down with the backdraft, killing multiple people.
