TEHRAN, Jul. 22 (MNA) – Ukraine attempted to launch a drone attack on the Crimean Peninsula on Saturday, the region’s Russian-installed governor Sergei Aksyonov said.

He said the attack targeted infrastructure in the district of Krasnohvardiiske, near the center of the peninsula, without providing detail, Al Arabiya reported. 

“Emergency workers are on the spot to eliminate possible consequences,” he said.

Earlier on Saturday, an official Telegram channel said road traffic on the bridge linking Russia to Crimea has been temporarily blocked.
