Bridge occupants successfully obstruct traffic crossing in Crimea
On the morning of September 4th, 2025, the Crimean Bridge was temporarily blocked by Russian occupiers. The news was reported via "Crimean Bridge: Live Updates" on Telegram.
In the early hours of the day, traffic on the bridge came to a halt. The bridge, located in Crimea, was closed to all traffic, causing a disruption in transportation.
Following the initial blockage, those on the bridge and in the inspection zone were urged to remain calm. Transport security personnel issued instructions for those on the bridge, but no further details about the reason for the blockage were provided in the message.
As the hour after midnight in Kyiv approached, the Crimean Bridge resumed traffic. The occupiers announced the resumption of traffic, but the sources do not specify the exact reason for the resumption.
The Krim Bridge, as it is locally known, had been closed for traffic before this date, indicating possible security or military reasons rather than a civilian or known group blockade.
The latest message regarding the situation was also sent via "Crimean Bridge: Live Updates" on Telegram, but the date of the message is not specified, suggesting that events continued to unfold after September 4th.
Despite the temporary disruption, the Crimean Bridge remains a vital transportation link connecting Crimea with mainland Russia. The incident serves as a reminder of the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region.
