According to Mizintsev, the militants of the Ukrainian armed formations plan to blow up this bridge and accuse the units of the Armed Forces of Russia and the DPR of allegedly indiscriminate strikes on transport infrastructure facilities.
He stressed that the troops of Russia, the DPR and the LPR do not strike at civilian infrastructure and treat the civilian population humanely.
On July 22, Mizintsev stated that Ukrainian neo-Nazis had mined bridges across the Ploska Osokorovka (Pridolinovka village) and Konka (Kamyshevakha) rivers in the Zaporozhye region.
