The Crimean bridge: what is known about the explosion
Autumn, October 8, an explosion rang out on the Crimean bridge. According to the propagandist media, 5 people died there.
Kremlin leader Volodymyr Putin called the explosions on the Crimean bridge a “terrorist attack” and blamed all over Ukraine.
Meanwhile, the Office of the President of Ukraine reported that the blowing up of the Crimean bridge was probably organized by the occupiers themselves due to internal political conflicts.
Citizens of the Russian Federation immediately began to flee from the annexed Crimea. A huge line of cars formed at the exit from the peninsula.
The FSB later named the “organizer” of the incident head of the military intelligence of Ukraine Kyryl Budanov.
