Traffic on the key bridge connecting Crimea to Russia’s mainland has been halted after one of its sections was blown up in what Russian officials said was a Ukrainian attack that also killed a married couple and injured their daughter.

Russia’s National Anti-Terrorist Committee said that the attack on the Crimean Bridge had been staged by the Ukrainian special services and involved two sea drones.
