Russia and Ukraine clashed over the explosion of the Crimean bridge on 8 (local time).
Ukraine has not acknowledged responsibility for the incident, but has been pleased with the destruction of the bridge and Russia is pushing Ukraine to be behind the incident even before the investigation is completed.
Ukrainian National Security Advisor Olexi Danilov posted a video on social media that showed the Crimean bridge burning and Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe singing “Happy Birthday, President” on social media, according to AFP and Reuters.
This is taken as a mockery that the day before was Vladimir Putin’s 70th birthday.
“This is the beginning of this incident,” Ukrainian presidential assistant Mikhail Podolyak tweeted earlier.
The Ukrainian air force also posted a photo of the bridge destroyed by explosions and fires on its Telegram channel, calling it a “morning view of the Crimean bridge”.
Part of the road was destroyed.
Everything will be Ukraine! “
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova criticized Ukraine’s reaction to this response, using the term “terrorist”.
“The Ukrainian regime’s response to the destruction of private facilities shows their attributes as terrorists,” Zaharova said on Telegram.
The Russian State Counter-Terrorism Commission announced that a bomb exploded in a truck crossing the Crimean bridge at 6:07 am the same day.
As a result, part of the vehicle bridge collapsed and the fire was transferred to a freight train carrying oil from a nearby railway bridge to the Crimean peninsula, causing a major fire.
