Russian divers are investigating the damage caused by the powerful explosion on the road and railway bridge to Crimea on Sunday. Russian news agencies quote Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin as saying the divers will begin work at 6 a.m. (5 a.m. CEST). A more detailed survey above the waterline is expected to be completed by the end of the day.
The Crimean Bridge, which is strategically and symbolically important for Russia, was rocked by a heavy explosion on Saturday morning. Extensive damage can be seen on videos. The exact background is still unclear. According to Russian sources, a truck exploded. As a result, according to Russian researchers, seven tank wagons with diesel caught fire. In addition, parts of the bridge road fell into the sea.
No one has yet taken responsibility for the attack. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy remains silent about the explosion on the Crimean Bridge.
