Reznikov: Ukraine to continue carrying out attacks on Crimea, Kerch bridge
Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov said Ukraine will continue carrying out attacks on the temporarily occupied by Russia Crimea and the Kerch bridge.
The minister told CNN, "all these targets are official targets" because it will reduce their capacity to fight against us and will help to save the lives of Ukrainians.
Asked if Ukraine's goal is to permanently disable the bridge, Reznikov responded: "It's normal tactics to ruin the logistic lines of your enemy to stop the options to get more ammunition, to get more fuel, to get more food, etcetera. That's why we will use these tactics against them."
Speaking about whether Ukraine plans to strike Russian ships in the Black Sea in response, Reznikov said Ukraine has capacity.
"We have weapons as we did with the cruiser Moskva and if they threaten us in the Black Sea, we'll have to respond," he said.
