Whodunnit?

Can rule out this event being caused by a missile, evidence so far points towards non military grade explosives with additives for enhanced thermal effects.
Delivery is either by boat or truck, with the truck being most obvious means, however the explosion epicenter seems to actually be behind the trucks location... which is curious.
In all cases, the device came from Russian controlled territory, and yet it is contended that the Ukrainians did this. We are to assume that Ukraine would not expect putin to go into a "rage" and attack what? the only thing that exists that Russia can hit, which is civilian targets, as they are soft and concentrated, Russia's preferred method of conducting genocide.

Ukraine has been rational to date, and a strike on the bridge without also hitting the land MSR routes misses the mark on rational strategy.Ukraine can range the A-14 along much of it;s length already, yet didn't make a fashion statement. Nor did they strike the rail line infrastructure at the same time. This doesn't appear to be up to the standard of Ukraine's planning, it has all the hallmarks of a botched FSB effort, the gang that couldn't shoot straight.

Reportedly Shoigu has resigned and is taking up decorating his daughters 14M USD dacha, not bad for an unemployed 18 Y/O. Who says crime doesn't pay? Certainly not Putin.

I'm leaning heavily to this being an internecine tiff for control of the Titanic's wheelhouse, with or without Putin being fully informed.

Suspect someone in the FSB is wearing a cone of shame for the overly exuberant display and the whoopsie that the train happened to be there to add to the show. How did Ukraine otherwise get a bomb past the worlds greatest border guards? straight through security... nice pictures... from inside Russia? during hostilities? Is Russian internal security that shambolic?

Stinks of maskirovska, and that suggests more to come.
