Ukraine missiles damage bridge to Crimea: Russian officials

Al Jazeera  

The Chonhar road bridge connecting Kherson to Crimea is damaged but there are no casualties, Russian-appointed officials say. Ukrainian missiles have struck the Chonhar road bridge connecting Crimea with Russian-held parts of the southern Kherson region, according to Russian-appointed officials. “… Now we are still waiting to hear more from the Russian side about how this will be dealt with.” Russian-appointed officials Vladimir Saldo, the Russian-appointed governor of Kherson, parts of which Russian forces have captured during what Moscow calls its “special military operation”, said the road bridge had been damaged but that there were no casualties. A link between the Kherson region and Crimea continues to operate – a reserve route has been temporarily organised for vehicular traffic.” Sergei Aksyonov, Crimea’s Russian-appointed governor, told people to stay calm and said specialists were examining the site to determine when traffic over the bridge could resume.
