The Air Force has confirmed that in the plane crash involving two Tornado aircraft that were conducting a training mission in the area. The two Tornado that collided in flight in the skies over Ascoli Piceno came from the base of Ghedi (Brescia) and after flight training would have to return to base. The Air Force has sent a team of experts to the crash site for the first checks....Etc.

"........The Bridge of Tiberius (Italian: Ponte di Tiberio) or Bridge of Augustus (Latin: Pons Augustus) is a Roman bridge in Rimini, Italy. The bridge features five semicircular arches with an average span length of ca. 8 m. Construction work started during Augustus' reign and was finished under his successor Tiberius in 20 AD; an inscription thus calls the structure as "given by both emperors".[1] The bridge was the only crossing of the Marecchia not destroyed by the retreating German army during the Battle of Rimini and is said to have resisted all attempts at destruction, including the ignition failure of explosive charges.[2] The bridge is still open to pedestrian and vehicular traffic, with the exception of heavy goods vehicles.......".

Yes, Iveco and Renault could do the job the TNT of Wehrmacht was not able to perform.... but please.... Who did order to German Wehrmacht (or SS?) to fail the blowing up of such an allegorical bridge?..... Perhaps this guy?
Both Tornado fighters (crashed in proximity of Ascoli Piceno) were from Air Force base at Ghedi, near Brescia:

Arnold of Brescia (c. 1090 – 1155), also known as Arnaldus (Italian: Arnaldo da Brescia), was an Italian canon regular from Lombardy.[1] He called on the Church to renounce property ownership and participated in the failed Commune of Rome.
Eventually arrested, he was hanged by the papacy, burned posthumously, and then had his ashes thrown into the River Tiber. Though as a religious reformer and a political leader Arnold failed,[2] his teachings on apostolic poverty gained currency after his death among "Arnoldists" and more widely among Waldensians and the Spiritual Franciscans, though no written word of his has survived the official condemnation.[3] Protestants rank him among the precursors of the Reformation.[4]

"....
Attired in his monk's cloak, his countenance stamped with courage, but already wearing
traces of care, Arnold took his stand in the streets of his native Brescia, and began
to thunder forth his scheme of reform.[20]
His townsmen gathered round him. For spiritual Christianity the men of that
age had little value, still Arnold had touched a chord in their hearts, to which
they were able to respond. The pomp, profligacy, and power of Churchmen had scandalized
all classes, and made a reformation so far welcome, even to those who were not prepared
to sympathize in the more exclusively spiritual views of the Waldenses and Albigenses.
The suddenness and boldness of the assault seem to have stunned the ecclesiastical
authorities; and it was not till the Bishop of Brescia found his entire flock, deserting
the cathedral, and assembling daily in the marketplace, crowding round the eloquent
preacher and listening with applause to his fierce philippics, that he bestirred
himself to silence the courageous monk.
(....)
The bishop, deeming it hopeless to contend against Arnold on the spot, in
the midst of his numerous followers, complained of him to the Pope. Innocent II.
convoked a General Council in the Vatican, and summoned Arnold to Rome. The summons
was obeyed. The crime of the monk was of all others the most heinous in the eyes
of the hierarchy. He had attacked the authority, riches, and pleasures of the priesthood;
but other pretexts must be found on which to condemn him. "Besides this, it
was said of him that he was unsound in his judgment about the Sacrament of the altar
and infant baptism." "We find that St. Bernard sending to Pope Innocent
II. a catalogue of the errors of Abelardus," whose scholar Arnold had been,
"accuseth him of teaching, concerning the Eucharist, that the accidents existed
in the air, but not without a subject; and that when a rat doth eat the Sacrament,
God withdraweth whither He pleaseth, and preserves where He pleases the body of Jesus
Christ."[22]
The sum of this is that Arnold rejected transubstantiation, and did not believe
in baptismal regeneration; and on these grounds the Council found it convenient to
rest their sentence, condemning him to perpetual silence.
(......)
The opportunity passed. And then came Adrian IV., Nicholas Breakspear, the only Englishman
who ever ascended the throne of the Vatican. Adrian addressed himself with rigor
to quell the tempests which for ten years had warred around the Papal chair. He smote
the Romans with interdict. They were vanquished by the ghostly terror. They banished
Arnold, and the portals of the churches, to them the gates of heaven, were re-opened
to the penitent citizens. But the exile of Arnold did not suffice to appease the
anger of Adrian. The Pontiff bargained with Frederic Barbarossa, who was then soliciting
from the Pope coronation as emperor, that the monk should be given up. Arnold was
seized, sent to Rome under a strong escort, and burned alive. We are able to infer
that his followers in Rome were numerous to the last, from the reason given for the
order to throw his ashes into the Tiber, "to prevent the foolish rabble from
expressing any veneration for his body."....".

Fundamentalist Nutcases
As you all probably already know, Byzantium extended the dominion in Italy. Little north to the river Marecchia there's the city Ravenna (ancient Etruscan/Raseni name with proto-slovane root in "raven" which means "plain surface"):

".......
The Basilica of Sant' Apollinare Nuovo is a basilica church in Ravenna, Italy. It was erected by Ostrogoth King Theodoric the Great as his palace chapel during the first quarter of the 6th century as attested to in the Liber Pontificalis). This Arian church was originally dedicated in 504 AD to "Christ the Redeemer".[1]
It was reconsecrated in 561 AD, under the rule of the Byzantine emperor Justinian I,
under the new name "Sanctus Martinus in Coelo Aureo" ("Saint Martin in
Golden Heaven"). Suppressing the Arian cult, the church was dedicated to
Saint Martin of Tours, a foe of Arianism. According to legend, Pope Gregory the Great ordered that the mosaics
in the church be blackened, as their golden glory distracted worshipers
from their prayers. The basilica was renamed again in 856 AD when
relics of Saint Apollinaris were transferred from the Basilica of Sant'Apollinare in Classe because of the threat posed by frequent raids of pirates from the Adriatic Sea.
(......)
On the upper band of the left lateral wall are 13 small mosaics,
depicting Jesus' miracles and parables; and on the right wall are 13
mosaics depicting the Passion and Resurrection. However, the
flagellation and crucifixion are lacking. They describe the parts of the
Bible that were read aloud in the church during Lent under the rule of Theodoric the Great.
On the left, Jesus is always depicted as young, beardless man, dressed
as a Roman Emperor. On the right, Jesus is depicted with a beard. For
the Arians, this emphasized that Jesus grew older and became a "man of
sorrows", as spoken of by the prophet Isaiah. These mosaics are
separated by decorative mosaic panels depicting a shell-shaped niche
with a tapestry, cross, and two doves. These mosaics were executed by at
least two artists.

".......The Exarchate of Ravenna or of Italy was a center of Byzantine (East Roman) power in Italy, from the end of the 6th century to 751, when the last exarch was put to death by the Lombards............"
As you can see the bridge of Augustus, the crash site and the Exarchate are pretty intermingled among themselves:

.....The last 10 days of August have especial importance from a religious-sensible point of view........."
[Dr. Tatyana Koryagina - see References]
".......As you can easily verify, it was the same Barbarossa to erect the “Königspfalz”, the emperial seat in the city of Kaiserslautern, about 25 kilometres away from the today’s base of Ramstein.
Kaiserslautern, together with other four German cities, has been
appointed “Barbarossastadt” (“city of Barbarossa”) cause the long
sojourn spent by that emperor in those cities.............".
28th AUGUST, a day as many others.......
Thanks to a hint given by Christo Stiliyanov, I believe that the case of the Massacre of Ramstein has been definitively unraveled:
".....on the 28th of August, on the feast of the Dormition/Assumption of Mother of God .... was discovered a canvas with a portrait of the son of Emperor Nicholay II, prince Alexey. Dated around 1914.... Miraculously left untouched by the bolsheviks and Nazis. ...":
