Meanwhile, about 250 trucks have already gathered in the queue for the ferry across the Kerch Strait in Crimea.
Estimates of the damage to the Crimean bridge after the October 8 explosion are expected to differ between representatives of the occupying country Russia and Ukrainian experts. However, the parties are united in the fact that the full functioning of this strategic object for the Russian Federation is currently not possible. , that after the explosion, the Crimean Bridge is unfit for the passage of trucks and buses. This is stated in his Telegram post.
According to the occupier, since October 9, traffic on the automobile part of the Crimea Bridge is carried out only by passenger cars.
“Until a special order, only passenger cars will travel on the road part of the Crimean bridge. The railway branch will operate as usual,” Aksyonov wrote.
The head of the occupation authorities added that passenger buses and trucks will be transported by ferry.
At the same time, according to Russian media reports, about 250 trucks have already gathered in the queue for the ferry across the Kerch Strait in Crimea.
Ukraine, in turn, declares that it will take the Russians three to five months to completely repair the road surface of the Crimean Bridge, and it is still unclear when freight trains will be able to run
strong> along the railway section of the bridge. This opinion was expressed by Vadym Denysenko, advisor to the Minister of Internal Affairs, executive director of the Ukrainian Institute of the Future, during the telethon broadcast.“If we talk about automobile logistics,the Russians' statement that they will be able to repair all three spans that fell within a week or two is an absolute lie.
According to experts, it should take no less than a month and a half to manufacture these spans. Next, the period November-February will begin, this is the time when the level of storms in the Kerch Strait is sufficiently high, and it is practically impossible to do repair work on stormy days. Therefore, it is realistic to say that the bridge will be restored no earlier than in three to five months. I mean the road track,” said DenysenkoHe added that it is not clear at the moment what the condition of the railway track of the Crimean bridge is, because currently they have launched only passenger trains, and when they will be able to start freight trains – it is not yet known.
We will remind you that a strong fire broke out on the bridge in the morning of October 8. Later it became known , that two car spans collapsed and a railway branch was damaged.
In Russia, the cause of the destruction was called a truck explosion.
British intelligence claims that Russia's already limited ability to supply its group with resources in the temporarily occupied southern territories of Ukraine will decrease even more.
