    No, that doesn’t make a lot of sense. Russia has enough boats/ships to evacuate Crimea if they wanted. They used to supply the whole Crimea woth ships before the bridge was built.

    If Ukraine could, they would definitely destroy the bridge. But it’s just very difficult task.

      Putin would forbid any evacuation plans. A bridge allows scared soldiers a way to run away without permission from command.

        WTF, the bridge has checkpoints on both sides, you’re not going to somehow sneak thousands of soldiers.

            You think they would mutiny? Then they can just steal some of the many ships in the harbors.

            And again, 20 km long bridge is a perfect place to destroy / stop whatever you want. It’s a chokepoint, hell to get through if the other sode doesn’t want to let you go through.
