Russian occupiers suspect Crimean bridge workers of organising explosions 

This is reported by the National Resistance Centre of Ukraine.

It is noted that after a series of explosions on the Kerch Bridge in the temporarily occupied Crimea, the Russians have stepped up inspections of all critical facilities on the peninsula.

According to the National Resistance Centre, all employees of such facilities are summoned for questioning and their phones are checked.

In addition, Russian occupiers "strongly recommend" that employees report on those whom they consider disloyal to the Russian occupation authorities.

Explosion on the Crimean bridge: what happened

The explosions on the Crimean bridge occurred in the morning of July 17, after which the occupation authorities declared an "emergency" and accused the Ukrainian military of the attack. Damage to the roadway was found on the spans, and 2 deaths were reported.

Ukraine's Security Service says all details of the explosion on the Crimean bridge will be disclosed after Ukraine wins the war against Russia.

Due to the night's incident, Vladimir Putin convened an emergency meeting, where he promised a "Russian response" to the explosion on the Crimean bridge.

Russian media claimed that the Ukrainian Defense Forces allegedly shelled the "land route" from Russia to Crimea over 20 times during the month.

Instead, Maxar Technologies published satellite images of the Crimean bridge after the nighttime explosion on July 17.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba told the UN that Russia was using the Crimean bridge to continue the war in Ukraine, and that it was built illegally.

Later, the Russian government said that the restoration of the Crimean bridge would take 2 months and cost RUB 1.3 billion.

On July 18, the Russian Defense Ministry again accused Ukraine of attacking the temporarily occupied Crimea with drones.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said at the UN that Russia is using the Crimean bridge to continue the war in Ukraine, and that it was built illegally.

On July 21, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the Crimean bridge a target of the Ukrainian military and said it should be completely dismantled. According to the president, the Crimean bridge is not just a logistical road, it is used to supply the war with ammunition, and this is done every day.

On July 22, the occupation authorities of Crimea announced the attack on the peninsula's infrastructure by drones: an oil depot in the village of Oktiabrske was on fire and an ammunition depot at the airfield located there was detonated. Railway traffic was suspended. The Strategic Communications Department of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirmed its involvement in the attacks.
