"russians did brought quite a number of air defense systems there, a large air defense system, as they call it. And they do it for a reason. They need the missiles, it is not a coincidence," Pletenchuk emphasized.

As Pletenchuk stated, russians are covering the Kerch bridge and now care more about it than some equally important objects on the territory of the russian federation itself.

"They are well aware of that, just as we are. But you can see that this sacralized bridge has an unclear meaning, whether it is more ideological or purely logistical. They are really trying to protect it as much as possible. So yes, they need the missiles," the Navy spokesman emphasized.

Earlier Defense Express reported that russian occupiers in Crimea had prepared S-300 systems to repel Ukrainian strikes.
