"Crimea Bridge Faces Disruptions as Naval Drones Target Russian Fleet"

Russia has closed the Kerch bridge, which connects the country to Crimea, after Ukrainian naval drones and a cruise missile targeted a shipyard in Sevastopol, damaging two Russian warships. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that Ukraine fired 10 cruise missiles and targeted the Black Sea Fleet with three seaborne drones. The strikes come as Ukraine continues its counteroffensive to reclaim occupied territory. While Ukraine has not directly claimed responsibility, the commander of Ukraine's air force hinted at involvement. The Kerch Strait Bridge, a key supply route for Russia's forces, has been frequently targeted and was closed to traffic after the attack. The closures are impacting Moscow's ability to move resources and defend against Ukraine's counteroffensive.
