The bridge suffered damage after one of its sections was blown up, killing two people and wounding a child.

Traffic on the single bridge that links Russia to Moscow-annexed Crimea and serves as a key supply route for the Kremlin’s forces in the war with Ukraine came to a standstill on Monday after one of its sections was blown up, killing a couple and wounding their daughter.

The RBC Ukraine news agency reported that explosions were heard on the bridge, with Russian military bloggers reporting two strikes.

RBC Ukraine and another Ukrainian news outlet Ukrainska Pravda said the attack was planned jointly by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the Ukrainian navy, and involved sea drones.

    This academic investigation concludes that the massacre was a false flag operation,

    Directly contradicting forensic evidence. Those were Berkut bullets in protestor’s bodies. Unless you’re saying that Berkut gave (and then collected) weapons to Right Sector etc at which point yes it would’ve been a false flag but not one that would exonerate the bastards.

    The issue here is that with the ukrainian side taking the “there was no gunshots from any maidan protester buildings” position it eliminates all trust.

    Where are you hearing that kind of stuff. Also who else but protestors is supposed to have shot Berkut cops dead, the question if at all is who started it.

      I don’t know man but shit doesn’t add up.

      Where are you hearing that kind of stuff

      Friends. I told you I personally know people in the region through various connections. I spent 2 weeks in Crimea myself in 2009, which is obviously not a lot of time but I have some comrades I personally know there. I had some in Ukraine too but I’ve lost contact with everyone and have no idea if they’re dead, rounded up by the conscription gangs and forced to go to combat, or arrested by SBU.
