Artem Starosek, CEO of "Molfar" intelligence agency, notes that a frame-by-frame review of the video of Crimean bridge explosion shows that most likely the truck did not explode, but was burned by something else that exploded from either the side or the bottom of the bridge

He shared his opinion with Espreso.TV live on air.

"I will explain point by point what is wrong with Russian version of Crimean Bridge bombing. First, they tell about the fall of two spans of the bridge, but according to satellite images it is clear that three spans fell. Two spans next to the truck, which was then on  of the bridge, and the third a little earlier. From this we can conclude that there were at least two explosions," CEO of Molfar intelligence agency explained.

Artem Starosek noted that if the explosion had occurred from above, then most likely a large hole would have formed on the bridge itself, which in fact does not exist, and one can see the fall of the spans near the attachment to their foundations.

"We broke down the video frame by frame and saw that when the truck was moving on the bridge, it was not at the epicenter of the explosion, because the epicenter itself was a little to the right and the fire was going somewhat from the sea to the middle of the roadway. If we take all these facts together, then we can conclude that most likely the truck did not explode, but it burned from something else that exploded either from the side or from below the bridge," Starosek commented.
