The head of Ukrainian military intelligence said those who say ATACMS are not powerful enough to destroy the Kerch Bridge 'should read the technical manuals.'
The head of Ukrainian military intelligence has said that Kyiv can use American-supplied long-range weapons to target the bridge linking Crimea with Russia.The Kerch Bridge has a four-lane road and a double-track railway and links Russia's Krasnodar region with the peninsula Vladimir Putin illegally annexed in 2014. Over the course of the war started by Putin, the bridge has been a key supply route for Russian forces as well as a symbol of Moscow's occupation.
The bridge's destruction would mean Russian forces would have to rely on the long route along the northern coast of the Sea of Azov, which Ukrainian forces could exploit, the Washington, D.C., think tank said on Monday.In May, Molfar, an open-source intelligence agency based in Kyiv said its analysis of Maxar satellite imagery over the past year showed Russia rerouting military supplies.
