Russian authorities arrested eight people in connection with the bombing of the Kerch Bridge, which is the only bridge that connects Russia to the Crimean Peninsula.
The Federal Security Service told Russian state media TASS on Wednesday,"So far, five Russian nationals, as well as three Ukrainians and Armenians who took part in preparations for the attack, have been arrested as part of a criminal case.”
Russia launched a massive offensive aerial campaign throughout Ukraine, killing more than 20 people. The number of strikes, and their targets, are reminiscent of the beginning of the war. “When you look at the size and scale here of these missile and drone attacks … that's not the kind of thing the Russians can just throw together in a couple of days. It likely was something that they had been planning for quite some time,” he said on CNN. “Now, that's not to say that the explosion on the Crimea bridge might have accelerated some of their planning, I don't know that.
