The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate advised civilians not to travel to the Crimean Bridge, indicating “new surprises” for the invaders in 2024.
The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Kirill Budanov, announced new surprises for the Russian occupiers of Crimea and recommended that the civilian population not use the Crimean Bridge. He announced this on Telegram on Sunday, February 25.
“Russia’s war against Ukraine began not two years ago, but ten – with the occupation of the Ukrainian Crimea. However, neither the Ukrainian state nor the Ukrainians agreed to recognize the aggressor’s right to the Crimean land, ” he says.
Budanov emphasized that the resistance of the local Ukrainian population against the invaders did not subside for a moment, despite the repression.
“For successful defense and counter-offensive, we must control the Black Sea and be present on the Crimean peninsula. The assigned tasks have been completed,” said the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate.
Budanov stressed that Russia had lost a quarter of its ships and was forced to withdraw its fleet off the coast of the Caucasus and redeploy aircraft, as Crimea’s airfields and military facilities continued which is under the influence of the fire of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
“We promised that in 2023 the Ukrainian special forces will be in Crimea, and we have fulfilled this promise. New surprises await the enemies, and I will not recommend the civilian population to use the so-called Crimean Bridge,” the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate emphasized.
We remind you that the Crimean Bridge was hit at least twice. In October 2022, a powerful explosion occurred here, causing great destruction. Later, the SBU said it was a special operation. And in July 2023, the Crimean Bridge was successfully attacked by Sea Baby sea drones.
