SBU’s Bold Move: A Big Blow to the Kerch Bridge
“When the Ukrainian security team turned the tide,” echoes the latest headline from Crimea. The Kerch Bridge, the lifeline that stitches Crimea to Russia’s mainland, just received a hefty splash from 1,100 kilograms of underwater explosives.
What Went Down
- Crafty SBU operatives mined the bridge’s supports for months, then detonated the first charge at 4:44 am.
- The blast hit those critical underwater pillars, causing a visible shiver along the structure.
- It’s the second high‑profile strike against Russia this year, following the “Spiderweb” drone barrage on the Kremlin’s strategic nuclear bombers.
A Rousing Statement from the Command
Lieutenant General Vasyl Malyuk, head of the SBU, said:
“Previously, we struck the Crimean Bridge twice in 2022 and 2023. So today we carried on this tradition—underwater style.”
“There is no place for any illegal Russian facilities on our territory. The Crimean Bridge is an absolutely legitimate target, especially since the enemy treated it as a logistical artery to supply its troops.”
“Crimea is Ukraine, and any manifestations of occupation won’t go unpunished. We’re here to make sure that’s clear.”
The Drama Behind the Disaster
Imagine a well‑planned operation where every trusted support beam is carefully excavated, sabotaged, and then triggered by a jaw‑dropping explosion. The result? A mighty bridge crumpling into a beautiful spectacle of rippling water.
Why It Matters
This isn’t just about causing headaches for Moscow. By attacking a vital supply route, the SBU hampers the movement of troops and equipment—making the Kremlin’s logistical plans feel as shaky as a boat on a stormy sea.
