Explosion destroys part of Crimea bridge crucial to Russian war effort

LONDON, Oct 8 (Reuters) - A blast on the strategic road-and-rail bridge linking Russia and the Crimean peninsula on Saturday brought down sections of road taking traffic in one direction, damaging a crucial supply route for Russian forces in Ukraine.
The blast on the Kerch bridge, for which Russia did not immediately assign blame, prompted gleeful messages from Ukrainian officials but no direct claim of responsibility.
Russia seized Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 and the 19-km (12-mile) bridge linking it to Russia’s transport network was opened with great fanfare four years later by President Vladimir Putin himself.... Reuters 10/08/2022
