Ukraine has possessed the ability to destroy or at least heavily degrade the Kerch Bridge since May. Russian air defense capabilities are not the reason why the bridge is still operational. This relates almost certainly to Western targeting restrictions that are still in place.

Guess it is a matter of timing. They will do it, when it makes the most sense. This should be, when they either start a bigger attack from Kherson or go directly for crimea in any way. Otherwise they would just repair it, like the first time.

Es hat ja schon Wochen gedauert, bis das OK kam, dass Storm Shadow und SCALP/ER überhaupt auf dem Territorium der Krim eingesetzt werden durften. Der Westen legt der UA Handschellen und Fussketten an, wo man sich wirklich fragen muss, ob sie auch wollen, dass dieser Krieg schnell zu Ende geht.
