The Kakhovka dam at Kherson in southern Ukraine holds back 18 million cubic meters of water. If she is destroyed, it can lead to a flume disaster. According to the Ukrainian president, it could lead to more than 80 towns and cities being flown over, including the big city of Kherson. It could affect several hundred thousand people, he says. According to the Ukrainian news agency Interfax, he says that the water supply to a large part of southern Ukraine could be destroyed. It could also destroy the fresh water supply to the Crimean peninsula. He says it could also lead to a possible nuclear disaster. – Such a Russian terrorist attack could lead to the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant being without water for cooling – water that is usually taken from the reservoir at the dam. According to the Ukrainian authorities, Russian forces have total control of the power plant no. The Ukrainian employees are chased out. Plan false flag operation Zelenskyy asks for an international observer force to be deployed at the dam. He says that Russia has plans to carry out an operation under a false flag. That means they want to blame Ukraine for what is happening. Think tank The Institute for the Study of War writes that it is likely that the Russians are continuing with the planning of such a false flag operation. The think tank believes that the Russian forces can prevent the explosion of the dam when they withdraw from the area on the west side of the river. Depictions of how large an area could be hit by floe if the dam burst are scattered in the area below the power plant by the Russian occupation forces. It is probably intended to shift attention away from own losses and from own withdrawals in the area, write the think tank. The Kakhovka dam in the Dnieper River lies upstream of the city of Kherson. Evacuation by ferry underway Fresh satellite image shows that evacuation of Russian forces and equipment is already underway with a car ferry across the river below the power plant, reports Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Russian sources, on the other hand, blame the Ukrainians for firing at the power plant with artillery. On Wednesday, the Russian authorities implemented a plan for the mass evacuation of up to 60,000 people from the city of Kherson over the next few days. In recent weeks, Ukrainian forces have been advancing towards the city, and fierce battles are taking place in the area.
