The explosion on the Crimean bridge. What will be the consequences of damage to the logistics artery of the Russians

On the so-called Crimean bridge, which connects the territory of Russia with the annexed Crimea, on Monday night stopped the movement-local authorities reported that "there was an emergency in the area Strait: on the bridge and through the ferry. The first hours after the incident, the Russians claimed that the destruction was small and the situation is under control. Although Crimean publications have already written about two powerful explosions and serious damage.

Subsequently, the first photos began to appear. They are noticeable, as the result of the explosions fell at least one of the automobile spans of the bridge: part of the roadway collapsed, the other was ashamed and hanging over the sea. They later reported the death of people-men and women and injury to a 14-year-old child. Social network users have posted a video of a broken machine on a bridge with bodies inside.

There was an index "31" on the car of the car, which indicates registration in the Belgorod region of the Russian Federation. In the end, representatives of the occupying power were taken to comment on the incident. In particular, the so -called head of the State Council of Crimea Volodymyr Konstantinov declared an attack on the infrastructure object, accusing Ukraine. Subsequently, a voice came from Moscow. The Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov put responsibility for the "attack" on "Kiev regime".

Later, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation qualified the event as a terrorist act, and the deputy chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev said that the terrorists could fight, "undermining their own homes and homes of their relatives. " Instead, the Ukrainian side did not officially comment on the incident all day.

The Telegram-Channel of the Security Service of Ukraine posted a mysterious message: "Nightingale, native brother, again went to sleep, and once . . . two", and the SBU spokesman Artem Dehtyarenko remarked: He withstood the military load. " Representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the MO Andriy Yusov remembered the words of the chairman Kiril Budanov: "The Crimean Bridge is a design there.

" However, in the morning, the trains of the bridge were restored by the bridge, but the ferry was not launched. The bridge on the occupied peninsula for the Russian Federation is strategically important - it is supplied not only by food and water to the peninsula, but most importantly by living power, equipment and weapons for fighting in Ukraine. Earlier, the Crimean Bridge was also affected. On October 8, 2022, the structure was partially destroyed through the explosion.

The Ukrainian side and international partners have repeatedly stated that the Crimean bridge, like other objects in the Crimea - warehouses with ammunition, airport, railway - legitimate military goals, and the operational situation and traditions of war allows to cut the logistics paths of the enemy. "One bridge is a road, the other is rail. They are very close to each other, but the engineering structures of everyone.

Even on the road bridge are two lanes that are independent of each other," explains the focus the head of the Globalist Center "XXI" Strategy Strategy. Pavel Lakichuk. When a truck exploded on the bridge on October 8, 2022, one flight of the automobile bridge fell, and a fuel tank was burned on the railway. Remember how long the Antonovsky bridge was destroyed in Kherson. This is very difficult, "he adds.

The expert notes that the Crimean bridge is a capital structure, but it is quite fast-built, which is why any serious shift of the bridge supports leads to the destruction and fall of spans. " two sea drones on the bridge. And if so, we can say that two drones can easily destroy one span, damage the other. This is what we see in the photo. It is difficult to say what the degree of impression of the bridge support and how much it has shifted from its axis.

It is possible to focus on the reaction of the Russians what they will do next. " It is only because of the movement of movement on the bridge, but also because of the ferry crossing that the Russians have recently stopped. But, I think, the fear of Russians should quickly overcome, it is important for them to establish logistics until the cities work, - comments Lakichuk. - As they say in business, time is money, then in war times it is human lives.

And when logistics chains are destroyed or damaged for a certain period, a certain fora of the enemy's forces is given. Even if you stop the delivery for 24 hours or twelve, it will be noticeable. The shells or fuel, which should be at lunch today near Melitopol or Tokmak, will be two days later. The longer this period of time, the better. In such cases, the injuries and violations of these chains begin to look for reserve channels, protected, and establish logistics, but it is not immediately.

" Mo of "extra structures" and other hints may indicate that the Ukrainian side hints that it is better to flee the Crimean bridge while it is whole. Better let them escape to Muscovy on it than they will be charged under Chersonese, " - says Lakichuk. However, he believes that the Ukrainian side is not now interested in the destruction On the Crimean Bridge, it can be another argument used by the Russian side in the context of the grain agreement. ] Grain Agreement.

Many experts, in principle, obviously, ”she said. Recall that the Agreement, known as the Black Sea Grain Initiative, was concluded separately by Russia and Ukraine with the UN and Turkey in Istanbul in July 2022. Then it was continued several times. Yesterday, July 17. He threatens after every success of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but his crimes only ties to them when he succeeds, "Lakichuk notes.

It can The "cotton" in the Sevastopol bay began in a few hours a rocket coating on Kiev and other cities of Ukraine. They said it was such a "response to Ukrainian actions. " But this is a lie, because such operations are prepared for a long time - at least a week. So it was an attempt to justify your actions: in the absence of an attack on a bay, the rocket attack would still happen. If they commit a crime at the Zaporozhye NPP or somewhere else, they will try to explain it to Ukraine.
