“This is very interesting, information has appeared that on May 9 Ukraine plans to strike at the Crimean bridge.

This possibility must be kept in mind, because after deliveries from Western countries, Ukraine has such an opportunity to strike at this very strategically important bridge, ”Slaidins said on the air of Latvian Radio, quoted by RIA Novosti.

According to him, "supply for the southern direction of the armed forces is arriving through the bridge."

As previously reported, Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Danilov announced Ukraine's intention to launch a missile attack on the Crimean bridge.

At the same time, he could not clarify whether Kyiv has weapons that will allow this to be done.

The Kremlin called such a statement "the announcement of a possible terrorist act."

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev also commented on Danilov's threats: "I hope he understands that he will be a retaliatory target."
