The attack on the
Crimean Bridge was committed by the regime in Kiev, stated Russia's Foreign Ministry on Monday.
The decision to target the Crimean Bridge was made by Ukrainian officials, their military, and with the participation of US, and UK Special Services, added the ministry in a statement.
"Today's attack on the Crimean Bridge was committed by the Kiev regime. This regime is a terrorist one and has all the signs of an international organized criminal group," Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Telegram.
Russia’s Foreign Ministry strongly condemns the terrorist attack on the Crimea Bridge, which is a civilian object, it said in a statement on its website.
Underscoring that civilians crossing the bridge in a vehicle, Alexei and Natalia Kulik, had died in the attack, while their orphaned daughter was injured, the ministry voiced hope that the global community would display integrity and give proper assessment of this new crime committed by Ukrainian authorities. If the investigation of the Crimean bridge attack reveals Western origins of the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) used in the crime, it will confirm complicity of the West, added the Ministry.
Overnight, two unmanned surface vehicles attacked the infrastructure, according to the Russian National Anti-Terrorism Committee.
"At 3:05 [6:05 GMT] two Ukrainian unmanned maritime surface vehicles carried out an attack on the Crimean Bridge. As a result of the terrorist attack, the road part of the Crimean Bridge was damaged, while two adults were killed and one child was injured," the statement said.
Russian investigators are identifying those involved in the organization of the terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge carried out by the Kiev regime's special services and armed units, according to the committee.
"The necessary examinations have been appointed as part of the criminal case. The investigation is identifying individuals from the Ukrainian special services and armed units involved in the organization and execution of this crime," stated the committee.
Emergency services are currently working at the scene. Law enforcement agencies are carrying out the necessary operational and investigative actions.
Earlier in the day, Crimean head Sergey Aksenov said that traffic was suspended on the Crimean Bridge due to an emergency, and urged people to avoid traveling via the infrustructure. The road part of the bridge had sustained damage.
"From the side of the Republic of Crimea, there is damage to the roadway on the spans of the Crimean bridge," the Russian Transport Ministry said on Telegram on Monday morning, adding that the "structures of the spans themselves are on their supports."
A civilian couple who had been driving by car from Stary Oskol, Belgorod region, were killed, their child was wounded.
"Two civilians died: a man and a woman, driving a car on the bridge," the Russian Investigative Committee said.
The woman who died as a result of the terror attack by Kiev on the Crimean bridge, Natalia Kulik, worked at the education department of Novy Oskol, a town in Russia’s Belgorod region. Her husband was a Kamaz truck driver. The civilian infrastructure of Belgorod, a territory bordering on Ukraine, has been regularly targeted by Ukraine’s military armed with
NATO-supplied weaponry.The couple's 14-year-old daughter has been admitted to the intensive care unit of Temryk Central Hospital. Her life is not in danger, according to local authorities.
