MOSCOW—Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) said on Wednesday that it had detained five Russians and three citizens of Ukraine and Armenia in connection with the bombing of a vital bridge to Crimea, an attack it said was masterminded by Ukraine.
The FSB said the attack was organized by Ukrainian military intelligence and its director, Kyrylo Budanov—echoing accusations by President Vladimir Putin over what he has called a “terrorist attack” against critical civilian infrastructure.
