KYIV - The Security Service of Ukraine said Tuesday that it has hit the Crimean Bridge for the third time using underwater explosives.
About 1,100 kilograms of TNT-equivalent explosives were placed under the bridge and detonated at 4:44 local time (0144 GMT), it said in a statement on Telegram.
The blast caused damage to the bridge's underwater support pillars. There were no civilian casualties, the statement said.
"The Crimean Bridge is a completely legitimate target, especially considering that the enemy used it as a logistical artery to supply its troops," Vasyl Malyuk, head of Security Service of Ukraine, was quoted in a statement as saying.
According to a video published by the Russian Federal Security Service on Tuesday, a detained resident of the Crimean city of Feodosia admitted that he had made a bomb to commit a terrorist attack on orders from Kyiv.
Ukraine had carried out attacks on the Crimean Bridge in 2022 and in 2023.
