The investigation considers as the main version of the explosion of a bus in Voronezh in August 2021 a sabotage arranged by immigrants from Ukraine. This is reported by Moskovsky Komsomolets, citing an unnamed informed source.

“The explosion was most likely committed to destabilize the situation in the region,” the newspaper writes. The interlocutor of “MK” claims that the suspects in the organization of the explosion have already been identified, they came and have already left Russia on foreign passports.

The MK version is confirmed by the telegram channel Baza. According to him, the information that a bus in Voronezh could have been blown up allegedly as revenge for the detention of Ukrainian nationalists appeared at the investigation back in the fall, but then it was not seriously considered.

“However, the year 2022 came and quite suddenly the version with Ukrainian saboteurs resurfaced and became the main one, and the investigation even had suspects,” Baza notes.

On the evening of August 12, a shuttle bus exploded at a bus stop in the center of Voronezh, in which at that moment there were 35 people. The explosion injured 24 people, two women later died in hospital.

Initially, the cause of the explosion was called a malfunction of the gas equipment, but later it turned out that the bus was diesel. The investigation stated that it did not consider the incident a terrorist attack and considered the conflict between the carriers as a priority version.
