So far at least 8 people have been confirmed dead and 24 others injured in these attacks. The mayor of Kiev said that several explosions were heard in the center of Kyiv city. Air raid sirens were heard in Kyiv for an hour after these explosions. In the Russo-Ukraine war, Ukrainian troops have liberated thousands of kilometers of territory from Russia since Putin’s army began an effort to cut off the eastern areas by stopping attacks on Kyiv. This has put Russian President Vladimir Putin under a lot of pressure and he has also appointed a new army chief.
Crimea bridge blast undoubtedly a terrorist act: Putin
Kyiv has now been targeted after the arrival of a new Russian general. Earlier, Putin said that the blast on the Crimea Bridge was undoubtedly a terrorist act aimed at destroying Russia’s critical civilian infrastructure. “The Ukrainian special services were the initiator, artist and mastermind,” Putin said during a meeting with Russian Investigative Committee chairman Alexander Bastrykin. Confirming Putin’s statement, Bastrykin said that citizens of Russia and abroad were also involved in the incident.
“We have already established the route of the truck that exploded,” Bastrykin said. It went through Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, North Ossetia and the Krasnodar Territory. We have also identified the carriers, with the help of FSB (Federal Security Service) agents, we were able to identify suspects from among those who may have arranged the terrorist act and who are active within the Russian Federation.’ On Saturday, a deadly explosion occurred at the 19-kilometre-long Crimean Bridge, which includes two parallel passageways for automobiles and trains, over the Kerch Strait.
