Ukraine has repeatedly targeted the Crimean Bridge, also known as the Kerch Bridge, linking the Crimean Peninsula to mainland Russia.
Russia is redeploying air defenses to shield a key bridge used by Russia to connect with the annexed Crimean Peninsula that Ukraine has long targeted, according to a Crimean-based pro-Ukrainian group.'The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation began to massively transfer equipment closer to the Kerch Bridge,' Atesh, a pro-Kyiv military partisan group of Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars, said in a post to messaging app Telegram on Thursday.
'They are able to cover only one area of the peninsula.'Kyiv has also zeroed in on and targeted the Crimean Bridge, also known as the Kerch Bridge, which links the western side of Crimea to mainland Russia.The Kerch Bridge, a road and rail crossing, was built shortly after Russia annexed the peninsula. It was personally unveiled by Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2018, making the bridge an appealing propaganda, as well as military, target for Ukraine.
