The Kerch bridge linking Russia to the Crimean Peninsula was once a symbol of Russian dominance, unveiled with great fanfare following Russia’s annexation of Crimea. But an explosion overnight from October 7 to 8 partially destroyed the bridge, marking the latest setback for Russian objectives in the region.
CCTV footage posted on social networks showed a powerful explosion as several vehicles drove over the bridge, including a large truck that Russian authorities suspect was the reason behind the explosion.
