Ukraine hits bridge linking Crimea to Russia with underwater explosives

Ukraine is on a roll. How long can they keep it up before Russia strikes back?

What wonderful news this fine morning!

Russia has been "striking back" for three years now. What else are they going to do? They'll simply keep up the campaign they've been waging, which has been only minimally successful in terms of land, they've been moving forward at a snail's pace.

There's the nuclear option, but that would destroy everyone and I don't believe even Putin wants that. I'm surprised that they weren't ready for a drone strike, and that they kept their bombers in open airfields like that. Everyone is now well aware of how highly advanced Ukraine's drone warfare program is; Russia should have taken protective steps.

Hardcore!

[quote] Ukraine's security service (SBU) revealed a new special operation once again hitting Russia's Kerch Bridge to Crimea, this time in an underwater attack that it said had left the structure "in disrepair". They published a video of the explosion.

[quote] In a post on Telegram, the SBU said its agents had mined the underwater supports of the bridge in an operation that had lasted several months, and detonated the first device at 4:44 a.m. local time on Tuesday morning.

[quote] The SBU said it had "badly damaged" those supports with the explosives, which had the blast equivalent of 1100 kilograms of TNT.

And to think all these moves were thought up whilst Biden was still president.

Fantastic!!

"Russia should have taken protective steps."

You'd think with 3.5 German troops and thousands of tanks, fighter planes and other weapons amassed at its borders in June of 1941, they would have taken protective steps.

Obviously, they don't learn their lessons.
