YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Vladimir Putin threatened to strike at Ukraine in retaliation for explosions that damaged Russia’s flagship bridge to Crimea.

“Russia will, of course, respond,” Putin said late Monday in a televised meeting with officials. “The Defense Ministry is preparing the appropriate proposals.”

Russia’s National Antiterrorism Center said two Ukrainian surface drones attacked the bridge in the early hours of Monday, damaging a section of the roadway. The operation was carried out by “Ukrainian special services,” Russia’s Investigative Committee said in a statement.

State television showed part of the roadway had buckled after the explosions on the 19-kilometer (12-mile) bridge connecting Russia to Crimea across the Kerch Strait, which were the most serious since a massive blast in October.
