The Security Service of Ukraine has warned Vladimir Putin that the Crimea bridge that links the annexed peninsula to Russia is “doomed.”
The head of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) Vasyl Maliuk said that the Crimea bridge which was built illegally and cost a billion dollars is the most protected bridge in the world.
However, the SBU warned that maritime drones and long-range cruise missiles has actually proved otherwise with many attacks over the past months.
Maliuk said, “We have destroyed the myth of the invincibility of russia. This is a fake country. The bridge is doomed.
“Many surprises are ahead, and not only regarding the Crimean Bridge.”
