Traffic on the single bridge that links Russia to Moscow-annexed Crimea and serves as a key supply route for the Kremlin’s forces in the war with Ukraine came to a standstill on Monday after one of its sections was blown up, killing a couple and wounding their daughter.

The RBC Ukraine news agency reported that explosions were heard on the bridge, with Russian military bloggers reporting two strikes.

RBC Ukraine and another Ukrainian news outlet Ukrainska Pravda said the attack was planned jointly by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the Ukrainian navy, and involved sea drones.

    Don’t worry, I remember what happened before 2014. I didn’t have any sympathy for separatists then and I don’t have now either.

      …So for the crime of wanting to separate from an increasingly-fascist government, you want their bridges blown up and their civilians turned into chunky salsa. You’re a fucking ghoul; and part of me wonders how you’d feel about American separatists when that day eventually comes.

        how you’d feel about American separatists

        If they want to join Canada or Mexico then the same. Independence =/= stealing for another country.

        you want their bridges blown up and their civilians turned into chunky salsa

        Nobody is forcing Russians to visit Ukrainian territory.

          You’re a fucking ghoul, and I pray you wind up having to live through the monstrosity you’d subject others to.
