A child's parents were killed and the child was injured due to an "emergency situation" on the Crimean Bridge which links the Crimean Peninsula to the Russian region of Krasnodar, Russia's Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said on July 17.

Traffic was halted on the bridge with more than 30 cars queuing, many people chose to return to Kerch or Crimea to wait for the latest update.

Officials advised vehicles to make detour or wait for the ferry to open.

The exclusive video footage was taken by Veronika Kotkova, CGTN's Crimean correspondent.
