Unknown persons have blown up supports under a car bridge over the Borova River along a motorway that links the towns of Severodonetsk and Rubizhne in eastern Ukraine.

No one was killed or injured in the explosion, which occurred early on July 21, the press service of the Ukrainian Infrastructure Ministry reported on Tuesday.

The affected section of the Severodonetsk-Rubizhne road is currently closed to traffic. Repairs are impossible at the moment as fighting continues in the area.
