An explosion on the Kerch Bridge that connects Russia to Crimea has damaged the span and killed three people. This comes amid Russia's ongoing war with Ukraine.
The blast occurred late on Wednesday night, and caused significant damage to the bridge. Three people were killed in the explosion, and several others were injured.
The Kerch Bridge is a vital link between Russia and Crimea, and has been the site of tensions between the two countries in recent years. The blast will likely increase tensions even further.
Russia has been accused of aggression against Ukraine since it annexed Crimea in 2014. The two countries have been engaged in a low-level war in eastern Ukraine since then, with occasional flare-ups of violence.
The blast on the Kerch Bridge is likely to add fuel to the fire.
