Crimea Bridge Traffic Suspended After A Nearby Ammunition And Oil Depot Were Hit By A Ukrainian Drone

 

Reuters: Drone attack on ammunition depot in Crimea prompts evacuation, bridge closure 

A drone attack on an ammunition depot in Crimea prompted authorities to evacuate a 5 km (3 mile) radius and briefly suspend road traffic on the bridge linking the peninsula to Russia, the region's Moscow-installed governor said on Saturday. 

Ukraine said its army had destroyed an oil depot and Russian army warehouses in what it called the "temporarily occupied" district of Oktiabrske in central Crimea. 

The attack caused an ammunition depot to explode, said Russian-installed governor Sergei Aksyonov, adding there was no reported damage or casualties. 

Footage shared by state media showed a thick cloud of grey smoke at the site.
