Investigations

For many of us, Saturday morning, October 8, did not start with coffee, but with the news about the explosion of the Kerch bridge, which was illegally built by the Russian occupiers, as it connects the occupied Crimea with mainland Russia. As a result, traffic on the bridge was stopped and trains were delayed. The fire itself was extinguished with the help of helicopters. As a result, a ships` traffic jam was created on both sides of the bridge. Additionally, on the territory of the peninsula panic started: thus, were introduced restrictions on the purchase of cereals and sugar, as well as huge lines formed at gas stations in a matter of minutes.
