Sept 3 (Reuters) – Traffic on the main bridge linking the Russian mainland with the Crimean peninsula resumed after a brief suspension early on Sunday, the Russian-based operator of the bridge said on the Telegram messaging app.
The administration did not disclose the reason for the suspension. Russia annexed Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula in 2014, in a move condemned by many Western governments as illegal.
The Crimean Bridge has been the target of increasing air and sea strikes by drones in recent months.
