Ukrainian intelligence wants to destroy Crimean bridge in the first half of this year - The Guardian
Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine plans to destroy the Crimean Bridge in the first half of 2024, according to anonymous officials of Ukraine's military intelligence service, the GUR, cited by The Guardian.
This year, Ukraine wants to destroy the Crimean bridge, so the special services are already preparing for a new attack. The Guardian and UNN reported this with reference to anonymous high-ranking officials in the GUR .
Details
Senior representatives of the GUR told the newspaper that the destruction of the bridge is "inevitable." The Guardian's sources are also confident that Ukraine will be able to disable the bridge in the near future.
We will do this in the first half of 2024
It will fall: Budanov on the Crimean BridgeFebruary 25 2024, 01:38 PM • 26108 views
It is noted that intelligence chief Kirill Budanov already has "most of the funds to achieve this goal." He is following a plan approved by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to "minimize" Russia's naval presence in the Black Sea.
Addendum
The publication noted that the Moscow bridge is a symbol of the peninsula's "return" to Russia, which Putin considers one of his greatest political achievements.
For Kyiv, however, the bridge is a symbol of the Kremlin's illegal annexation. Obviously, its destruction will not only boost morale, but also weaken Russia's military logistics.
It is unclear how the Ukrainian attack would unfold, and there are serious doubts as to whether the GRU is capable of conducting a special operation against such a well-protected target. russia has taken extensive measures to protect the bridge, beefing up its air defense and deploying a "target barge" as a decoy for guided missiles
Recall
SBU Head Vasyl Malyuk says the Crimean bridge is "doomed" after successful attacks by SBU maritime drones undermined its supposed invulnerability and affected Russian logistics.
