The Russian Investigative Committee has classified the explosions that allegedly caused bridges to collapse in the Bryansk and Kursk regions this weekend as acts of terrorism.
“It’s clear that the terrorists, acting on the orders of the Kyiv regime, planned everything with precision to ensure their attacks would target hundreds of civilians,” said Investigative Committee spokesperson Svetlana Petrenko.
According to her, state investigators recovered parts of explosive devices and other physical evidence from the sites of the incidents.
“With the support of the FSB [Federal Security Service] and the Interior Ministry, those who organized and carried out these inhumane crimes will be identified and brought to justice,” Petrenko added.
The bridge collapse in the Bryansk region killed seven people and injured dozens of others.
