Traffic on the Crimean Bridge resumed about an hour after it was halted, according to a Telegram channel dedicated to operational updates on the bridge. The update noted that normal vehicle flow had returned to the overpass, marking the restart of traffic as observed in the report published at 19:08 Moscow time.
Earlier, on the evening of November 29, vehicle movement was stopped on the Crimean Bridge. A separate broadcast at 18:10 Moscow time confirmed the restriction in place at that time.
The message attributed no specific reason for the suspension of channel traffic. By 18:00, observers reported that checkpoints on both sides of the bridge remained accessible and there were no reported delays in reaching them.
In the broader discussion ahead of the event, a military commentator urged heightened protection for the Crimean Bridge. Retired colonel Yuri Knutov suggested that Ukraine had initially acquired underwater drones intended for demining purposes, but warned that such devices could potentially be repurposed to target the bridge structure itself.
Earlier remarks in Crimea framed the situation as the Ukrainian regime bearing responsibility for destabilizing actions and pursuing destructive outcomes. The sequence of updates reflects a pattern of bridge security and traffic management considerations that have repeatedly emerged in public discourse surrounding the facility.
