“Burn one's bridges”in other languages

Same idea, different pictures

English and French come from war. An army that burned the bridges behind it had no way to retreat. French burns its ships, brûler ses vaisseaux; the tyrant Agathocles of Syracuse did exactly that after landing in Africa in 310 BC. The story often told about Cortés is shakier: he had his ships run aground, not burned.

Ukrainian breaks the jug, розбити глек, and narrows the meaning to people: it's said of a friendship or relationship broken beyond repair.
