They will inspect structural integrity of bridge and look for more evidence Russia blamed the explosion on a truck bomb and is trying to identify its driver But a mysterious wave underneath the bridge was seen moments before blast The clip aroused suspicions that the bridge was targeted by a Ukrainian craft
Russian frogmen are now examining the damage left by a powerful blast on the Kerch bridge to Crimea that is a prestigious symbol of Moscow's annexation of the peninsula and a key supply route to forces battling in southern Ukraine.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin said the divers would start work in the morning, with a more detailed survey above the waterline expected to be complete by day's end, Russian news agencies reported.
The team will inspect the bridge's foundations for structural integrity and will search for further evidence in relation to the blast, which killed three people.
'The situation is manageable - it's unpleasant, but not fatal,' Crimea's Russian governor Sergei Aksyonov assured reporters before threatening to retaliate over the blast.
'Of course, emotions have been triggered and there is a healthy desire to seek revenge,' he said.
The bridge is a major artery for the Russian forces that control most of southern Ukraine's Kherson region and for the Russian naval port of Sevastopol. But Rail traffic was restored to the bridge late last night, meaning it is unlikely the destruction will dramatically hinder Russian supply routes.
Saturday's explosion on the bridge over the Kerch Strait prompted gleeful messages from Ukrainian officials, though no claim of responsibility.
But a mysterious 'wave' which appeared under the bridge moments before it was blown up has fuelled speculation that Ukrainian special services used a boat or explosive-laden drone to launch an attack to damage Putin's supply lines.

Liar. Just straight up BS liar.
As reported from your own propaganda ridden media:
“...freight trains and long-distance passenger trains across the bridge were running according to schedule on Sunday. Limited road traffic resumed on Saturday around 10 hours after the blast.
“Only passenger cars will use the road section of the Crimean bridge until a special order is issued. The railway line will operate as normal. Buses of all types and heavy vehicles will be transported by ferry,” Aksyonov wrote on the Telegram messaging app.”

Had a thought, it was the Germans the Germans are getting back at the Russians for blowing up their pipeline everybody’s looking at Ukraine they’re not looking at what just happened a few weeks ago with the pipeline
Yeah, well, that happens in war, like those tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilians the Russians have slaughtered since February 24, both deliberately and indiscriminately.
