After spending weeks putting bombs on the support structure beneath the water, Ukraine announced on Tuesday that it had struck the Crimean gate for the next day since the start of Russia’s invasion. Although it was not immediately known how much damage was caused, the Security Service of Ukraine, an intelligence company known as the SBU, claimed one of the explosions was visible in a speech and video. The first violent system detonated now at 4.44am, without any casualties in the immediate vicinity,” the organization stated in a speech. The equivalent of 1,100 kg of TNT was used to repair the heavily damaged under support pillars at the seafloor. An explosion under the Kerch Strait Bridge, which connects Russia’s island and the Crimean Peninsula, was captured on security footage released by the company and verified by NYT. The strike appeared to be targeted gate help components. How many damage the gate suffered was unknown. The agency’s photo shows some harm to the wall. The SBU reported that visitors on the bridge was suspended for about three hours on Tuesday night, and then it was closed again for about two days, according to the Telegram channel that monitors the tower’s activity. The causes of the closures were never made public. By late day, the gate had reopened. Vasyl Malyuk, the SBU’s head, claimed in a speech that Russia had continued to use the gate” as a administrative arteries to supply its troops,” making it a reputable goal. A Russian underwater drone attacked the bridge early on Tuesday, according to a Russian military blog called Rybar, which is run by former Soviet army service members Mikhail Zvinchuk, but it only hit a protective barrier around one of the pylons. Two days prior to the attack on the bridge, Ukraine carried out one of the most ambitious operations of the battle against Russia’s strategic bombing ship deeply inside Russia. The Kerch Strait Bridge spans 19 kilometers and serves as Moscow’s main provide way when it is engaged in fighting in southeastern Ukraine. It has a profound metaphoric significance for President Putin, who inaugurated it in 2018. A truck loaded with explosives detonated as it crossed the bridge in October 2022, igniting the flame that was big enough to ignite the gas tank on a passing train. A portion of the roadway was slammed out of its legs and into the ocean as a result of the explosion. The Russians began the repairs, but ten months after the gate was again damaged, using maritime drones to attack support pillars.
