The phrase “crime doesn't pay” means that many illegal methods are never beneficial and they often invite serious punishment.
In this particular case, the war criminal has to bear the consequence of his actions in Crimea and Ukraine. It is certainly a kick in the ass and a birthday punch in the face for the shrinking Communist dictator, #MadVlad Putin.
This 12-mile, $3.6 billion bridge opened as the longest in Europe and was a key supply artery for Crimea, which #Russia annexed from #Ukraine.
What do you get one of the world's richest men on his 70th birthday while he insists on waging unprovoked war against his peaceful neighbor? Russian President Vladimir Putin found out the hard way as his enemies sent death wishes.

According to Crimea Railway, a Russian state unitary enterprise, a fuel tank exploded at the tail of a freight train crossing over the bridge. Kudos to the #TASS photojournalist who managed to capture occupied Crimea in all its barbed and burning glory.
