  1. MELITOPOL, July 17. /TASS/. The land route running to Crimea across the Zaporozhye Region is safe and operating normally, acting Governor Yevgeny Balitsky reported on Monday. "Crimea has not been cut off from mainland Russia, nor can it be cut off from it, as the land link across the new [Russian] regions, including via the Zaporozhye Region, is operating normally," the official wrote on his Telegram channel. He pledged every assistance to government efforts to facilitate traffic across the new Russian regions for the country’s nationals. Balitsky denounced Monday’s emergency incident on the Crimean Bridge as "yet another terrorist attack by the Kiev regime, a cold-blooded and cynical at that." Oleg Kryuchkov, an advisor to the Crimea governor, said earlier that passenger cars would be able to leave Crimea by ferry service, as he advised truck drivers to drive through the new Russian regions.

  2. MOSCOW, July 17. /TASS/. Train traffic following an emergency due to a drone attack on the Crimean Bridge will get back on schedule by Monday evening, Oleg Kryuchkov, adviser to the head of Crimea, told the Rossiya-24 TV channel on Monday. "Gaps in long-distance, intercity train traffic enable dispatching local commuter trains, and [rail officials] have promised that all trains will be running on schedule by this evening," he said. Earlier, the Russian Transport Ministry said that rail traffic on the Crimean Bridge had resumed. A first train by the Grand Service Express rail carrier crossed the bridge at 8:34 a.m. Moscow time. According to the National Antiterrorism Committee (NAC), on Monday two Ukrainian surface drones carried out a terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge. Russia’s Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case on charges of a terrorist attack. A man and a woman from the Belgorod Region were killed in the attack, while their minor daughter was injured.

  3.  @shurely2559  The U.S. proxy war in Ukraine is lost, trying PR stunts to attempt to divert the attention away against total defeat in the counter offensive led by U.S./UK command is rather sad reflection on the obsessed that started all this. Exceptionalism is dead.
