MOSCOW, May 3 — Russia warned today it would launch a “devastating revenge strike” if Ukraine , backed by the West, strikes Crimea or the Crimean Bridge which links southern Russia to the Black Sea peninsula and has been targeted by Kyiv twice before.
Russia seized and annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014. Kyiv has repeatedly said it deems as illegal the construction of the road and rail bridge, which has been used in the past to move troops and weaponry. Ukraine says it wants Crimea back. The final image, labelled “Kerch”, the name of the Crimean town at one end of the Crimean Bridge, was left blank, perhaps suggesting it would be destroyed.“The Crimean Bridge is once again in the crosshairs,” Zakharova told a news briefing.
“I would like to warn Washington and Brussels that any aggressive actions against Crimea are not only doomed to fail, but will also be met with a devastating revenge strike,” she said.
