Ukraine says it hit Crimea bridge with underwater explosivesUkraine uses underwater explosive on Crimean bridgeHowever, later in the day, local authorities warned the bridge was temporarily closed again. Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) said it targeted the Crimea bridge with underwater explosives on Tuesday following an operation lasting "several months". In a Telegram post, it quoted Malyuk as saying Ukraine had hit the Crimea bridge in 2022 and 2023 and was therefore "continuing this tradition under water." The bridge - also known as Kerch Bridge - was built by Russia after it invaded and annexed the Crimean Peninsula in 2014. Tuesday's strike on the bridge comes barely 48 hours after Ukraine hit several targets across Russia as part of an operation dubbed 'Spider Web'.
