Security Footage Captures the Crimean Bridge Explosion
A huge explosion partially destroyed a key bridge linking Crimea and to mainland Russia in an apparent Ukrainian strike.
According to the New York Times:
"The blast and fire sent part of the 12-mile Kerch Strait Bridge tumbling into the sea and killed at least three people, according to the Russian authorities. A senior Ukrainian official corroborated Russian reports that Ukraine was behind the attack. The official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of a government ban on discussing the blast, added that Ukraine’s intelligence services had orchestrated the explosion, using a bomb loaded onto a truck being driven across the bridge".
