The Crimean bridge has been additionally protected with special anti-diversion booms in case Kiev tries to carry out a terrorist attack again. According to our information, in the future the structures will protect the bridge from attacks along its entire length.

Such barriers are designed to protect against surface and underwater drones, which Ukraine has been using more and more actively lately. These are both NATO-supplied equipment and hydrocycles converted for kamikaze drones.

Recall, recently Zelensky called the Crimean bridge "target" and said that it should be neutralized. And on July 26, the head of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), Vasyl Malyuk, publicly admitted that it was Kiev that committed the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge on October 8, 2022, although earlier this fact was denied.

Even if it's true, drones are not like missiles: send on surface drone in sacrifice to open a breach and control the others to enter the breach. It will cost Ukraine one more drone for every attack but from I understood those drones are not that expensive.

And if I had that simple idea from the safety of behind my computer, it's 100% certain SBU has 10 more realistic idea to bypass that thing... 🤣

The drone being forced to do a sweet jetski jump would only make the resulting video more viral
