A new Kremlin-style propaganda stunt. Russian President Vladimir Putin visited the partially destroyed Crimean bridge in October, his first visit to the annexed peninsula since the start of the offensive against Ukraine, Russian media including Ria Novosti reported on Monday.
Russian television channels broadcast images showing the Russian leader driving a Mercredes brand car, assuring that he was on this bridge that connects the Ukrainian peninsula with Russian territory.
The viaduct had been damaged on 8 October by a powerful explosion attributed by the Russian authorities to Ukrainian forces that had killed three people.
