Ukraine launched its third attack on the Kerch Bridge, a crucial supply route for Russian forces in Crimea. The attack, involving underwater drones, follows a recent successful Ukrainian drone operation targeting Russian bombers. The SBU, Ukraine's security service, claimed responsibility, stating the bridge is a legitimate target due to its use in supplying Russian troops. The bridge, opened by Putin in 2018, has been previously damaged in October 2022 and July 2023.
