The Telegram channel «Fisherman» also expressed similar views. According to their message, the attack indeed used underwater equipment, but the bridge had been reinforced in advance with protective measures to guard against such potential attacks.

Meanwhile, the monitoring platform «Lrp 1» reported that the attack on the Crimea Bridge was ongoing.
