Ukraine or Islamists: Versions of the terrorist attack in Kerch named in Crimea
Speaker of the State Council of Crimea Vladimir Konstantinov blamed the Ukrainian authorities for the terrorist attack at the Polytechnic College in Kerch.
“We are waiting for official information, but we understand that all the evil on the Crimean land comes from the official Ukrainian authorities. She does not hide her hatred towards us. She did us a lot of harm. I don’t want to get ahead of things, the competent authorities will sort it out. But the wind blows from there. I am personally convinced of this,” Konstantinov said on the Rossiya-24 TV channel.

The well-known military correspondent Alexander Kots expressed doubt about the involvement of the Ukrainian army in the terrorist attack, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“A strange choice of object for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For the barmalei - yes, for the stubborn Nazis who imagine themselves to be laboring partisans - perhaps for a schoolboy-avenger - probably, but he would have already been identified,” Kots wrote in his Telegram channel.
Crimean social activist Alexander Talipov believes that the explosion in Kerch could have been a response from the banned terrorist organization ISIS to the announced visit of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to Crimea.
“A terrorist attack, Islamists, a national factor, the banned organization ISIS, an official visit of a delegation from Crimea to Syria and the conclusion of cooperation agreements, compare the facts,” Talipov wrote in his blog.
