The Crimean bridge was closed because of exersises. This was stated by the occupier Sergei Aksyonov.
“The Crimean bridge is closed due to exercises being held in the area. Traffic will be restored in a few hours. I urge everyone to trust only reliable sources of information”,- he said.
We remind you that military exercises, promotion of military service and conscription into the armed forces of the Russian Federation are regularly held in the occupied Crimea. The exercises conducted by the Russian military destroy the ecosystem of the peninsula and are a gross violation of international law.
Earlier, NATO, in a statement from Crimea, condemned Russia’s long-standing large-scale military buildup in Crimea and expressed concern about Russia’s efforts and stated plans to further build up its military power in the Black Sea region.
