Repair of the Crimean bridge is delayed until the end of the year
The Russian government has extended the Kerch Bridge repair deadline until the end of 2023.
After the explosion on the Kerch Bridge on July 17, the occupiers stated that they intend to fully restore the structure by November. However, now, for some reason, the restoration period has been extended to December 31, 2023. This is stated in the decree of the Cabinet of the Russian Federation.
It is interesting that when rescheduling the repair dates, the Russians replaced the dates in the document approved on October 13 last year. Then, after the attack of the Armed Forces, the occupiers promised to restore the bridge by July 1, 2023, but, apparently, the repairs are still delayed.
Earlier, the Defence Intelligence intercepted a report on the Grain Agreement for the top military and political leadership of the Russian Federation. According to the document, Russia planned in advance to derail the Black Sea Initiative.
