There are two priority targets.

After the attack on the Crimean bridge, the AFU will conduct new operations. There are several other target bridges used by the enemy to transfer weapons and equipment for their army.

Roman Svitan, colonel of the AFU reserve, explains on the YouTube channel "Morning of February", UNIAN writes.

"In the near future we should attack two more bridges. One of them is the Chongarsky bridge. We also need to destroy the Taganrog bridge. It is located in the Rostov region, 2/3 of military issues go through it," he said.

According to Svitan, 30% of them go through the Krymsky Bridge: 20% - by rail, and 10% - by road.

"This automobile way was completely minimized by the Russians. Now they will start on the remaining branch, most likely, reverse traffic. Well, we'll see how they will do it," says the AFU reserve colonel.

In addition, it is necessary to complete the Crimean railway bridge in the near future, says Svitan.

In the night of July 17, 2023, explosions were heard near the Crimean bridge. Later, the occupiers will spread photos and videos showing that one span of the bridge fell, the other was damaged.

A number of Ukrainian media, citing sources, reported that the night attack on the Crimean bridge was a special operation of the Security Service of Ukraine and the Navy. Neither the Security Service nor the Navy officially confirmed their involvement in the damage to the Crimean bridge.

Russia has traditionally blamed Ukraine for the attack on the Crimean bridge, calling the assault on the structure a "terrorist act."
