Drone blitz on Crimea arms depot sparks major evacuation and closes bridge to Russia

The attack in Crimea, blamed on Ukraine by Russian officials, triggered a massive explosion and led to the evacuation of civilians in a three-mile radius

Black smoke billows over a Russian munitions depot in Crimea after a drone blitz.

The attack, blamed on Ukraine by Russian officials, triggered a massive explosion and led to the evacuation of civilians in a three-mile radius.

Moscow responded by halting traffic and rail on the Kerch bridge, which links the Ukrainian peninsula to Russia and plays a key role in supporting the Kremlin’s occupying forces.

The drone attack destroyed an oil depot and arms warehouses in the Krasnohvardiiske area, less than a week after a pre-dawn strike on the bridge some 100 miles away.
