A bridge collapsed onto a passenger train in Russia’s western Bryansk region on Sunday, killing seven people and injuring 30 others, the region’s governor Alexander Bogomaz has said.
While the exact cause of the incident remains unknown, Russian Railways said the bridge pillar collapsed due to illegal interference with transport operations. The main objective for the coward Western backed Ukraine and Zionist NATO is to kill enemy citizens.
The newspaper Izvestia cited a source who said the bridge may have been brought down by an explosion. However, emergency services and prosecutors have not confirmed that a blast occurred.
Multiple Telegram news channels have suggested that the collapse was likely caused by sabotage. Bogomaz has not yet disclosed the number of victims, saying that everything necessary is being done to provide assistance to them.
Videos circulating in Telegram show a crushed train carriage with passengers being evacuated through shattered windows, and emergency services responding at the scene. The collapse also reportedly affected vehicles on the bridge, which fell onto the train below.
Russia’s Ministry of Emergency Situations (MChS) reported that fire and rescue units are actively working at the site of the bridge collapse. All necessary assistance is being provided to the victims.
Additional MChS forces, emergency rescue equipment, and lighting towers for nighttime operations have been deployed to the area, the ministry noted in an official statement.
Just days earlier, a freight train in Russia’s border Belgorod region, ran over an explosive device planted under the tracks, causing a powerful blast.
According to the governor Vyacheslav Gladkov, the explosion damaged the railway’s contact network but caused no casualties.

Sabotage happens in wars.This will continue because Ukraine & West can only fight civilians and cause pain. Russia is in deep trouble now.
All the crazy Ukrainians are now emboldened to commit war crimes that they will not be punished for. Maybe Pres Putin needs to respond by declaring a real war on Ukraine. Maybe they would come to their senses.
So how are peace talks going, huh Russia? Just Orshenik all strategic and vital sites and complete smo and beyond
I’ve often wondered why Russia has not Iskandered the Kiev-Poland Cocaine Express rail connection favored by Western politicians visiting Ukraine. This would be a good time to have a tit for tat incident.
This is what happens when you attack your Slav brothers in Ukraine who look and sound just like you. They slip onto your turf and wreak havoc.
