Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, through his propagandists, threatens to destroy four German bridges in response to the attack on the Crimean bridge.

Russia is furious because Germany intends to contribute to the destruction of the Crimean bridge

One of the leading Russian propagandists, the general director of the Russia Today media group, Dmytry Kiselyov, began to threaten official Berlin on the live air of his show.

He began to claim that there are bridges in Germany that the Russian military can "look at through a missile sight."

So Putin's henchman first of all mentioned the Fehmarn Sound Bridge.

The Fehmarn Sound Bridge is a bridge that connects the island of Fehmarn with the Vaghria peninsula in Germany.

The length is 963.4 m. It was built in 1963. It crosses the Fehmarn-Sund strait in the Baltic Sea, having combined railway and road bridge. The European route E47 passes through the bridge.

The propagandist also mentioned the Rügen, Hohenzollern, and Magdeburg bridges, calling them legitimate targets for Russian missiles in the event of Ukraine's destruction of the Crimean bridge.

On Mar. 4, it became officially known that the German ambassador arrived at the Russian diplomatic office after the scandal involving the leak of secret negotiations of the German Air Force leadership regarding the supply of Taurus missiles to Ukraine.

How Germany reacted to the collapse of the Crimean Bridge negotiations

Official Berlin has launched an investigation into whether conversations between air force officials — who, propaganda claims, discussed blowing up the Kerch bridge with Taurus missiles — were intercepted.

Later, the German MOD confirmed the interception of the conversation.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz also made a statement, calling it a "big problem."

German MOD chief Boris Pistorius commented on the scandal, noting that it was a hybrid attack aimed at disinformation.
