Units of the Middle Strike element of the Special Operations Forces (SOF), in cooperation with underground resistance fighters of the SOF movement, destroyed a railway bridge over the North Crimean Canal near the village of Rozdolne in temporarily occupied Crimea. According to the SOF press service, drones struck the bridge on the night of June 22, destroying both the railway track and causing one of the spans to collapse.

Meanwhile, resistance fighters reported the arrival of special railway repair equipment at the site, marking the start of the second phase of the mission. On the night of June 23, SOF drones hit both the repair equipment and the remaining parts of the bridge again.

"This was a strategic military-logistics artery of the occupiers. The facility was part of a transport corridor for moving cargo, resources, and military materiel in two key directions: from Russia through Crimea to support the troop grouping in the southern direction, and within the peninsula to maintain Crimea's military infrastructure," the SOF statement said. The Special Operations Forces continue to destroy enemy military logistics, reducing its offensive and defensive potential.
