The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced that explosives with a force equivalent to 1,100 kilograms of TNT were used in the operation. The mission had been in preparation for months, caused “significant structural damage,” and left the bridge in a “critical condition,” according to preliminary assessments.

The head of the SBU, Vasyl Maliuk, stated that the bridge “remains a legitimate military target due to its use by Russian forces for logistical support,” adding that “Crimea is Ukraine” and warning that “any symbol or means of occupation will face consequences.”
