Tell us about how Russia destroyed their own dam,

Are you wondering how such a thing is possible? You think the Russians today can’t figure out something the Soviets figured out how to do in 1941? What’s your basis for that assumption? Anything at all beyond your colossal ignorance of last century’s battles in this very region? Tell us why the Russians refused the Ukrainian requests for international observers to be stationed at the dam to preclude Russian sabotage prior to their inevitable retreat.

How utterly clueless are you?

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has warned that Russia was preparing a “false flag” operation to blow up a large hydroelectric dam in the south of the country, potentially flooding 80 towns, villages and cities, including the strategically important city of Kherson.

He said that the plot to attack the dam at the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant in the city of Nova Kakhovka was aimed at framing Ukraine for the devastating humanitarian and ecological disaster that would ensue. He called for the creation of an international observation mission at the plant, saying it was imperative to prevent a potential catastrophe.

“We have information that Russian terrorists mined the dam and aggregates of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant,” he said on Thursday via video link to a meeting of European leaders in Brussels. “The water supply to a large part of the south of Ukraine may be destroyed.”

He added that a potential attack on the dam also presented a serious security risk, because it could leave the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, Europe’s largest nuclear power station, without the water necessary to cool its facilities. Water for the plant, he said, came from the Kakhovka Reservoir.
