A court in Russia on Thursday convicted eight people on terrorism charges over an attack on a bridge linking Russia to Crimea that is a key supply route for Kremlin forces in the conflict with Ukraine.

According to Associated Press the court sentenced all of the defendants to life in prison.

The October 2022 attack on the bridge came when a truck bomb blew up two of its sections and required months of repairs.

The blast killed the truck driver and four other people in a car nearby.

Moscow decried the attack as an act of terrorism and retaliated by bombarding Ukraine, targeting the country’s power grid over the winter.

The Ukrainian Security Service, known as the SBU, claimed responsibility for the attack.

Eight people including Russian, Ukrainian and Armenian citizens were arrested.

Five others, including three Ukrainian and two Georgian nationals, were charged in absentia.

Artyom and Georgy Azatyan, Oleg Antipov, Alexander Bylin, Vladimir Zloba, Dmitry Tyazhelykh, Roman Solomko and Artur Terchanyan were charged with carrying out a terrorist attack and illegal arms trafficking.

Solomko and Terchanyan also were accused of smuggling explosives.

The Russian authorities accused them of aiding Ukraine in organizing the attack.

"The court has established that between March 3 and August 2, 2022, the defendants joined an organized criminal group whose goal was to carry out a terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge," said Viktoria Mishchenko, the press secretary of the Southern District Military Court.

"Each of the defendants played their assigned roles and participated in the implementation of the plan," she claimed.

All of those arrested have denied the charges and insisted they didn’t know the truck carried explosives, according to Russian media reports.

A military court in Russia’s southern city Rostov-on-Don about 100 kilometers east of the border with Ukraine began trying the accused in February 2025 behind closed doors.
