The truck may be a red herring - just at the wrong place at the wrong time. If you look below the bridge in the moment before the detonation you can see a high speed boat appearing. A UKR remote?
Not seeing a high speed boat, there is an odd wave set though just behind the truck, on the water... That truck driver will be searching all over for his cigarette packet. Looks like steam coming off under the rail bridge, water main blown? The truck was coming from the Russian side of the planet... so if it was a truck bomb, there is room for more of those in the east. Probably need a new volunteer, as that driver will still have tinnitus from this effort. A single cigarette taking out both roadways and the railway, and a water main is going to have lots of paperwork on the remediation of the OH&S plan there.
It is a good excuse to get out of Ukraine, and blame his military, and safety managers, and retire to Sochi. Just sayin'...
