Breaking news: Russia responds to attack on Kerch Bridge

One of the alleged targets was the Ukrainian secret service building in Kiev. Twitter

A meeting of the Russian Security Council is scheduled to take place on Monday after a series of Russian strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure which have continued from the early morning. Kiev authorities have warned of interruptions in communications, electricity and water supply, urging citizens to charge phones and stock up on water.

“The Kiev regime has long been using terrorist methods,” said Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to the proposal of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and according to its General Staff, a massive strike was carried out with long-range precision weapons on energy facilities, military command and communications of Ukraine.

If attempts to carry out terrorist attacks on our territory continue, Russia’s responses will be tough and equal, no one should have any doubts about this,” the Russian leader added.

The strikes come in the wake of an attack on the Kerch Bridge linking Russia to Crimea. In 2018, FWM reported that the bridge could become a flashpoint.

Two major American news outlets, the New York Times and the Washington Post, claimed that the attack on the Kerch Bridge had been orchestrated by Ukraine’s intelligence services. Russian authorities have concurred with their assessment.

The powerful explosion damaged the bridge on Saturday morning, killing at least three civilians and resulting in a blaze on a parallel railway span where seven fuel tanks caught fire. The explosion led to a temporary halt of both road and rail traffic, although both had resumed by Saturday evening.
