Cầu Crimea do Nga xây dựng bị tấn công bằng chất nổ dưới nước, Ukraine nói | BBC News

Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) says it has managed to strike the Kerch bridge in Crimea with underwater explosives following an operation lasting "several months".

The bridge was built by Russia after it annexed the Crimean Peninsula in 2014, and is a hated symbol among Ukrainians.

Agents "mined the supports" of the bridge with 1,100kg of explosives which "severely damaged" the bottom level of the supports, the SBU said.

The "first explosive device" was activated early Tuesday morning "without any civilian casualties", the SBU added. The information shared by the SBU could not be immediately verified.

Russian media initially said the bridge was briefly closed to traffic but that it had reopened by 10:00 local time (08:00 GMT).
