JUST IN: Russia Launches Strike On Critical Infrastructure, One MILLION Left Without Power

Ukraine isn’t destroying critical infrastructure inside Russia, while Russia is destroying critical infrastructure inside Ukraine. Who is winning the war if that is the case? I’ll let you be the judge of that.

Russia recently launched an attack on several of Ukraine’s major power facilities— including the Dnipro River dam.

The attack left five dead and over one million people without power in the Eastern European state. Despite the vast damage done to the power installation, the dam is not yet in danger of collapsing.

Sources say the Dnipro dam holds close to one trillion gallons of water. What happens when the levy finally breaks?

Multiple outlets provided the latest updates on the ongoing war between the two countries:

BREAKING:

Russian cruise missile strikes largest dam plus energy facilities in Ukraine.

Over a MILLION people cut off from power in Ukraine.

The dam holds back almost 1 trillion gallons of water.

This morning, the Russians attacked Ukraine's largest hydroelectric power plant, the #Dnipro Hydroelectric Dam, in #Zaporizhzhia.

Its history began in the 1920s. During WWII, it was destroyed twice, but by 1947, the hydroelectric power station resumed its operations. pic.twitter.com/MJ5Rju0u53

Independent.UK revealed the scope of the attacks:

Dozens of energy facilities across the country were hit in the attacks, plunging more than a million Ukrainian civilians across seven regions into blackouts, as Poland, Romania and Slovakia rushed to supply emergency power.

Ukraine’s largest dam, the DniproHES in the southern city of Zaporizhzhia, which supplies electricity to the nearby nuclear plant, was also hit eight times, according to Yuriy Bielousov, head of the war department of the general prosecutor’s office.

President of Kyiv University and analyst Tymofiy Mylovanov went into greater depth on the Russian attacks targeting the critical Ukrainian hydroelectric dam.

-Russia hit the Dnipro hydroelectric power plant. There is a major fire but no threat of a dam breach.

Reuters provided this statement from Zelensky following the attack:

“Russian terror is only possible now because we don’t have enough modern air defense systems which, to be honest, requires enough political will to provide them,” Zelenskiy said.
