Ukraine tightens Crimea siege with drone-driven logistics blackout
Ukraine has shifted its Crimea campaign to a sustained drone-based siege aimed at choking supply routes like the Novorossiya highway, ferries across the Kerch Strait, bridges, and critical energy infrastructure. The strikes have caused fuel shortages and power outages, with civilian life disrupted and Russian authorities tightening controls. Experts say the campaign could degrade Russia’s hold on Crimea and push negotiations, though a ceasefire remains unlikely unless Russia feels pressure on Crimea itself.
