Ukraine hit three out of five car ferries at the Kerch crossing in Crimea. A video showing three burning vessels was published by the Ukrainian monitoring Telegram channel Exilenova+.
According to the source, the ferries were hit during an attack on the port of "Kavkaz", which is also currently burning. Judging by the coloration of the vessels, these are indeed car ferries, writes "Agenstvo".
The authorities of Krasnodar Krai confirmed an attack on only one car ferry. However, the entire crossing is closed from today. Officials recommended using the land route through the annexed territories of Ukraine to travel to Crimea, which has been under intense shelling by Ukrainian forces since early May.
Meanwhile, a huge traffic jam of 700 cars has formed on the Crimean Bridge, which remains one of the few roads to the mainland. There is no queue for entry into Crimea.
