The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced it carried out an underwater attack on the Crimean Bridge at 04:44 local time, severely damaging its supports with 1,100 kg of explosives.
SBU Chief Vasyl Malyuk said, “This is the third time we’ve hit the Crimean Bridge. It’s a legitimate target used for Russian military logistics. Crimea is Ukraine.”
The 19-kilometer bridge is strategically vital for Russia, linking it to Crimea, which it annexed in 2014.
