Details: Aksyonov reported that "an attack was made on the Chonhar bridge at night."

Saldo stated that, "according to a preliminary assessment, British Storm Shadow missiles were used." In addition, Saldo posted a photo of the Chonhar Bridge.

The Russian media Baza noted that several bridges on the border of Crimea and Kherson Oblast (in particular, the Chonhar Bridge) were allegedly damaged as a result of bombardment from Ukraine.

Later, Saldo posted a video from the damaged bridge, claiming that the alleged attack on the bridge "will not affect the course of the special operation [as Russian propaganda calls the war against Ukraine – ed.] in any way" and that "there are other land routes to Crimea", "which will take more time but are available".
