I also just learned that several civilians were killed and that the guy who drove the truck may have been unaware of the explosives, so this is just an actual terrorist attack rather than a “legitimate” (from the most pro-Ukrainian perspective possible) target

yes, I’m two days behind and most of you probably already knew this, so what, wanna fight about it

    Yes, they hired someone who never knew about the attack. The preliminary results are that the truck was a part of a regular transport comlany hired to deliver a chemical cargo through a fake one-time organisation. The cargo iirc was filled with a reagent that can be used in regular industry, but can also be used to produce volatile explosives, so it didn’t really tick anyone off. As soon as the truck got on the bridge it was most likely remotely detonaged through an explosive device inside the cargo.
