CNN: Ukraine claims responsibility for new attack on key Crimea bridge
A Ukrainian security official has claimed Kyiv’s responsibility for an attack on the bridge linking the annexed Crimean peninsula to the Russian mainland – a vital supply line for Russia’s war effort in Ukraine and a personal project for President Vladimir Putin.
The nearly 12-mile crossing, also known as the Kerch Bridge, is the longest in Europe and holds huge strategic and symbolic importance for Moscow. Monday’s attack on the bridge was the second since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine, after a fuel tanker exploded while crossing it in October.
A source in Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) told CNN this attack was a joint operation of the SBU and Ukraine’s naval forces. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because they had not received authorization to speak on the record.

Apparently it was some kind of submersible drone that surfaced right below the lowest portion of the bridge before detonating. The assumption is that it came from the Odessa grain corridor.
Ukraine claims responsibility. Really? No it was Saruman and the urku hai. Backed up by Shredder with Bee Bop and Rock Steady.
The real question.,,,was there a NATO drone in the 300 mile area when the operation took place. That would mean Pinky and the Brain were providing Intel over watch.
