Report states the total package, exosives, pallets, packing etc was nearly 23 tonnes!
I'm no expert in this field, but I think 23 tonnes of anfo would have done a lot more damage than that.

The Baltic Exchange in London, anfo bomb was 1 tonne in a Transit van, look at the damage that did. I've seen with my own eyes the crater from a mere 1,000lb RAF air dropped dumb bomb, all be it military grade explosives and I realy don't think the Kerch bridge was hit with anything close to 23 tonnes.

However, if it was the FSB, why use anfo if they were going to blame it on Ukraine? If it was Ukraine why use anfo? I'm sure they both have access to military grade explosives. My money is now on dissidents/insurgents, but from which side, is any ones guess.

If it was the FSB, I would be expecting a few of them to be exiting the Kremlin via the sixth floor
