Crimean Bridge

Medvedev said that world and Russian experience shows that it is impossible to fight terrorists with sanctions, intimidation or concessions.
"They understand only the language of force. Only personal and completely inhumane methods," Medvedev wrote on Telegram.
He says that it is necessary to blow up the houses of terrorists and their relatives.

Let's recall that two people were killed today and one child was injured on the Crimean Bridge, while traffic was stopped due to damage to the roadway, the Russian news agency RIA reported, citing the Ministry of Health of the Krasnodar Region.

A spokesman for the European Commission said today that there could be no credence in claims by Russian investigative services that the truck that allegedly blew up on Saturday on the Kerch (Crimea) bridge had left Bulgaria and passed through Georgia, Armenia and North Ossetia before arriving in the Krasnodar region (Russia).

Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that long-range missiles struck Ukrainian energy, military and communications infrastructure in an attack this morning.

Russian authorities said that a truck bomb on Oct. 8 caused a fire and the collapse of a section of a bridge linking Russia-annexed Crimea with Russia _ a key supply artery for Moscow's faltering war effort in southern Ukraine.

The bodies of four Turkish sailors, who died on two ships which caught fire in the Kerch Strait, have arrived in Istanbul by plane.

AFP, KERCH: Russian President Vladimir Putin is set to unveil Tuesday a highly symbolic bridge linking southern Russia to the Crimea, four years after the peninsula was annexed from Ukraine.

The Crimean Bridge, at 19 kilometers will be Europe's longest, overtaking Lisbon's Vasco da Gama Bridge.
