OP
The bridge is used to resupply the Russian army, so, yes, many trucks carry explosives.

The drivers can only make a few runs before growing another head on their shoulders.

and need a twenty dollar component to repair it, a part made in the west.

There's a smaller inspection facility on the Russian side.

I'm not sure the big x-ray equipment can easily detect a little bitty electronic detonator.
Driver, it appears you carry c4 explosives, is that right?
Yes, about two tons of the stuff.
Any cannabis vape oil?
No, none of that.
Carry on.
