The Kerch Strait Bridge connecting russia to Crimea must be neutralized. This bridge was constructed illegally that is why it must be destructed

That is according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

"The Crimean bridge, this is not just a logistical road, this is the road used to feed the war with ammunition, and this is being done on a daily basis. […] So understandably this is our objective. Any target that is bringing war, not peace, must be neutralized," Volodymyr Zelensky said at the Aspen Security Forum via video link, CNN reports.

"It's our sovereign territory, an unalienable part of our nation," he said.
