TEHRAN, Jul. 17 (MNA) – The Kyiv regime is a terrorist regime under the covert administration of Washington and London that shows all the signs of being an international organized crime group, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman said.

"Today's attack on the Crimean Bridge was carried out by the Kyiv regime. This regime is terrorist by nature and has all the characteristics of an international organized crime group," Maria Zakharova wrote on her Telegram channel on Monday, commenting on the latest Crimean Bridge attack.

According to the Russian diplomat, decisions are made by the Ukrainian government and military officials with the direct participation of US and British intelligence operatives and political figures, TASS reported. 

"The US and the UK [effectively] run this state-like, terrorist structure," she added.
