YEREVAN, OCTOBER 8, ARMENPRESS. The bridge that connects the Crimean Peninsula with mainland Russia has been damaged by a truck bombing, the Russian National Anti-Terrorism Committee said on Saturday, RT reports.
Officials said that the blast, which occurred shortly after 6am local time, caused a partial collapse of the road on the vehicle section. It also triggered a blaze on a freight train on the parallel rail section, with seven fuel tanks catching fire.
“The arch above the shipping section of the bridge has not been damaged,”the committee added.
