Ukraine on Saturday launched two S-200 missiles to strike the Crimean Bridge, but they “were detected in a timely manner and were intercepted in the air by Russian air defence systems,” Russia’s Tass news agency reported on Saturday, citing the country’s Defence Ministry.
The failed attack caused no damage or casualties, said the Ministry.
However, the Ukrainian government-run Ukrinform news agency said that two explosions were heard on Saturday near the bridge, citing Ukraine’s Centre of National Resistance, Xinhua news agency reported.
The 19-km Crimean Bridge that links Crimea to Russia consists of two parallel routes for automobiles and trains over the Kerch Strait.
