Blast hits major bridge linking Russia to Crimea

A powerful explosion has damaged the Kerch Bridge linking Russia to Crimea, but it remains open for some traffic. There has been no claim of responsibility, yet. Ukraine continues holding strategic military positions in Donbas, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Kherson regions.
