Chubarov: Explosions in Crimea are part of plan to bring liberation of peninsula closer
Chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar people Refat Chubarov said this in a video address on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.
Chubarov noted that from July 17, Russian military targets in the temporarily occupied Crimea have been attacked daily.
"Two explosions that occurred on the night of July 17 severely damaged the Kerch Bridge. Even then, we assessed them as part of a holistic plan to bring the liberation of Crimea closer. As you can see, we were right. A few days later, powerful ammunition depots were destroyed at the Kirov district training ground. And this morning, explosions continue at the ammunition depot in the village of Vilne, 25 kilometers from Dzhankoi. Also, a number of other attacks on military facilities in Crimea have been carried out these days," noted Chubarov.
In his opinion, there is not a single person left on the peninsula who does not realize that the liberation of the peninsula is inevitable.
Chubarov called on Crimeans who are loyal to the Ukrainian state to take care of themselves and support each other.
"If you live in a rural area, fortify cellars and basements, prepare food, water, and medicines. You may need it for some time. The main thing is not to be afraid. The liberation of Crimea is coming soon," Chubarov emphasized.
Head of the Mejlis said that the colonists who illegally settled in Crimea "should not tempt fate".
"You see, the bridge is very damaged, but it is still standing. It is very difficult for you to leave, you are being sent via an 'alternative route'. Soon, the Ukrainian Armed Forces will also cut this corridor. For now, the ferry is still running, so you can cross the bridge, but you have to wait in line. Do not delay. Pack your things and leave Crimea for the places you came from," he advised.
Chubarov added that collaborators should do the same.
"By leaving Crimea, you will relieve the Ukrainian special services and Ukrainian courts of their worries. We will find you, but later, when Russia capitulates to Ukraine and its partners. But it is better for you to leave Crimea now. Otherwise, no one will deal with you in the first days. Tomorrow it will be too late. The bridge will collapse, the ferry will be sunk, the corridor will be cut. You will be left in a sack," he said.
As reported, on the night of July 24, drones hit an ammunition depot of the Russian invaders in the Dzhankoi district of the temporarily occupied Crimea.
On July 20, explosions were heard near the airfields in the villages of Hvardiisk and Novofedorivka in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
On the night of July 17, a section of the bridge across the Kerch Strait collapsed. It was preceded by explosions.
