This Ukrainian officer is a major general named Marchenko. The bridge he wants to blow up is the 19-kilometer long bridge in Europe - Crimean Bridge. When the bridge was opened to traffic in 2018 , Russian President Putin drove a big truck , and the scene of "one truck leading the way" is still vivid in the minds of many people. This bridge spans the Kerch Strait and connects the Crimean Peninsula to the Russian mainland. Whether it was at that time or now that the land connection has been opened during the Russo-Ukrainian war, for Russia, All have extremely important significance.

So, with the help of Western military aid led by the United States, is the Ukrainian army really capable of blowing up the Crimean Bridge and cutting off this important supply line for the Russian army? Although we currently don’t know what the Ukrainian army’s specific plan is, we can briefly analyze it. First launch the attack from the sea. Not to mention that the Ukrainian navy and air force have been basically eliminated. The Russian Black Sea Fleet alone, which is responsible for the safety of the bridge, may not be able to enter the effective attack range for ordinary ships. In this case, it can only be air and land, and the Ukrainian army may rely on long-range rocket launcher systems and missile systems provided by the United States, or large drones.

However, as early as the opening of the Crimean Bridge, the Russian S400 air defense missile system had been deployed on the Crimean Peninsula. As an air defense system, the radar has a maximum detection range of 600 kilometers, and the missile has a range of 400 kilometers. The missile system, S400 is famous for its super strength. Therefore, it is really difficult for the Ukrainian army to break through this line of defense. Moreover, before providing these weapons systems to Ukraine, U.S. President Biden repeatedly emphasized that Ukraine should not use these weapons to attack the Russian mainland.

Of course, Ukraine will say that Crimea is Ukrainian territory, so it is not an attack on Russian territory. However, if it does this, will Russia, which already de facto owns Crimea and regards it as its own territory, agree? Russia's warning is very straightforward, that is, the Russian army's revenge will be fatal. In the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war, there are a large number of Ukrainian military casualties every day. Are these not fatal? It seems that the Russian army is retaliating.

is very likely to directly launch a nuclear attack.

Because the destruction of the Crimean Bridge touched the red line for Russia to use nuclear weapons , it meant that Russia's survival was threatened. Last month, there was news that Ukraine would blow up the Crimean Bridge on Russia’s Victory Day. However, in the end, this matter only stayed at the news level and nothing happened. After more than a month, the Ukrainian military officer brought it up again, and I am afraid that in the end he will just drop it. Because "talking" is simpler than anything else. Compared with the Ukrainian army's patchwork of attack methods, which are mostly theoretical, the Russian army's retaliatory methods will not be just talk on paper. When the time comes, there is no doubt that the result of sealing the throat with a sword will be fatal. .
