On July 9, Vladimir Zelensky’s neo-Nazi regime attempted once again to carry out a terrorist attack on Russian soil striking the Kerch transport crossing and the Morozovsk airfield in the Rostov Region with S-200 anti-aircraft missiles, converted to strike capability. This attack was repulsed by air defence forces. The missiles have been destroyed. But as a result of fragmentation, several buildings were damaged.

On the same day, Russian air defence systems went off in the Bryansk Region. The Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to strike the Shaikovka airfield in the Kaluga Region. The missiles were distracted by electronic transmission and fell near ​​the Bytosh village, where a building was destroyed. There were no victims or injured.

According to experts, one missile was aimed at the Crimean Bridge. This shelling was another attempt by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to destroy this critical civilian infrastructure facility. Responsibility for the terrorist attack on the bridge on October 8, 2022, when civilians were killed, was recently and officially claimed by the Kiev regime, thereby reaffirming its commitment to terrorist methods and demonstrating that it is no different than the most odious neo-Nazi units.

Such actions would not have been possible without the financial, technical and logistical assistance of the US-led Western coalition, which is, in fact, a sponsor of the criminal activities of the Zelensky regime.

We believe that everyone responsible for this crime will face criminal prosecution. In addition, these and other terrorist attacks by the Kiev regime will receive a response from the Russian Armed Forces, which will achieve the elimination of threats to the security of our country and Russian citizens from Ukrainian territory in the course of the special military operation.
