The bridge suffered damage after one of its sections was blown up, killing two people and wounding a child.

Traffic on the single bridge that links Russia to Moscow-annexed Crimea and serves as a key supply route for the Kremlin’s forces in the war with Ukraine came to a standstill on Monday after one of its sections was blown up, killing a couple and wounding their daughter.

The RBC Ukraine news agency reported that explosions were heard on the bridge, with Russian military bloggers reporting two strikes.

RBC Ukraine and another Ukrainian news outlet Ukrainska Pravda said the attack was planned jointly by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the Ukrainian navy, and involved sea drones.

    I’m going to quote this next year when Xi annexes Sakalin.

    Russia has been too large for too long, it should have been split into a dozen separate countries centuries ago.

      Yeah man, I agree. USA should do so too. Ya know, too big of a country eh? Texas and Florida should separate and California following them as an example. Especially California, I hate California.

        It’s funny you say that, because both California and texas each have a larger GDP than russia by themselves.

        Of course that was before the catastrophic failure of a war, now I’m sure Russia’s smaller than Florida too.

        BTW, it’s pronounced “Knee-how”, just to help you for next year.
