Ukraine has (most likely) blown up the bridge that connect Crimea with Russia. The blast will badly impede Russian supply lines to their forces around Kherson. I've been waiting for an attack towards Mariupol for weeks, and this could be a precursor.
There's an old saw that amateur generals talk about tactics and professional soldiers talk about logistics. Ukraine has been so much better at targeting Russian logistics and "shaping the battlefield" than Russia. In fact, Russia responded to this by lobbing shells into civilian population centers. That's been their MO, whether out of malice or because they suck at targeting. The result of attacks on civilian centers has almost always been to stiffen resolve against the aggressors.
Ukraine has been pressing Russian forces near Kherson, they've blown up most bridges over the Dnipro River to isolate those forces. Now, they've added another bottleneck to Russian supply lines.
