Lots of interesting info here. Regarding the Kerch Bridge, last I heard, one or two of four road lanes were usable, and one of two rail lines was usable for passenger trains. All heavy trucks and heavy military supplies were being shipped by large ferries. If this information is still correct, then I would be targeting the ferries at dock so as not to sink a large number of civilians. Let the bridge continue to be used to enable the people living in Crimea to escape. Since Ukes are likely to attack the water and roads at the north of Crimea, the bridge should remain available for the population to escape. In earlier comments it was stated over 2 million are in Crimea, but without Dnipro River water Crimea can only support 700 to 800 thousand. Practicalities and humanity support letting the population escape, as does targeting ferries at docks rather than in travel.
