Annexed peninsula
Ukraine apparently attacks Crimea bridge with explosives
There was an explosion at the Crimean Bridge. A Ukrainian secret service claims to have damaged the transport path to the peninsula annexed by Russia with an explosive device.
Ukraine has an attack on the Kertsch Bridge, which connects the Russian mainland and the Ukrainian Peninsula Crimeans annexed by Russia. The Ukrainian secret service SBU announced on Tuesday that the bridge had attacked a third time, this time under water.
The SBU said that secret agents had attached more than one ton of explosive material on one of the bridge pillars under water. The first explosive set was ignited on Tuesday. The secret service published recordings that show an explosion and flying debris. Damage on the side of the bridge can be seen in a photo. How big the damage caused on the 19 -kilometer bridge was initially unclear.

Crimean bridge was closed on Tuesday for about four hours
As Russian state media reported, the bridge was closed to traffic for about four hours on Tuesday. In the afternoon (local time), the bridge seemed to be normal again.
Since the beginning of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine in February 2022, the bridge has been damaged twice by attacks that Kiev confessed: in October 2022 by a truck bomb and naval roar in July 2023. In the meantime, the Russian authorities have significantly increased the monitoring of the strategically important bridge, through which the Russian army transports soldiers and military equipment to the Crimea.
