Moving away from Crimea for a moment to Bakhmut, where Ukrainian forces have recaptured 2.7 square miles near the city in the last week, a senior military official said.

Vladimir Putin regards it as a landmark infrastructure project and, after repairs following an explosion last year, he drove a Mercedes across it.If you're just joining us, we've kicked off our live coverage already today following reported strikes on the Crimea bridge.
Russian officials have so far only made vague statements, describing an"emergency" situation that has damaged the bridge."The hardest thing is that her parents died, dad and mum," said Vyacheslav Gladkov, governor of the Belgorod region.Two dead after blasts reported on Crimea bridgeRussian officials said a couple was killed and their daughter injured in an unspecified accident while Ukrainian media reported explosions.
"Russia will only have one ground supply line - the coastal highway on the Sea of Azov - to sustain or evacuate its tens of thousands of troops in occupied Kherson and Crimea if Ukraine manages to degrade or destroy the bridge," he said.Serhiy Bratchuk, spokesperson for Ukraine's Odesa military administration, posted a photo on his Telegram account of what seemed to show part of the bridge broken.
Crimea was annexed by Russia from Ukraine in 2014, but is internationally recognised as part of Ukraine. "To much grief, one person was killed - a woman was riding a bicycle on the pavement at the time of the shelling. Injuries she received from shrapnel were incompatible with life," he said on Telegram.
