"Drone Attack in Crimea Triggers Evacuation and Bridge Closure, Ammo Depot Hit"

A drone attack on an ammunition depot in Crimea prompted the evacuation of residents within a five-kilometer radius and a temporary closure of the Kerch Bridge connecting the peninsula to Russia. The regional governor blamed the attack on a Ukrainian drone, but there was no immediate comment from Kyiv. The bridge, a vital logistics link for Russian forces and a popular tourist route, has been targeted twice since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Russia accuses Ukraine of carrying out the attacks, while Ukrainian President Zelenskiy considers the bridge a legitimate military target. Security concerns in Crimea have led to warnings against posting images of critical infrastructure online.
