🤡 The head of the European Council, Charles Michel, said he was shocked by the attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, blamed Russia for it and called the incident a "war crime".

🇷🇺🇺🇦 As a reminder, just a few short months ago Western analysts were saying that, for Russia to do this, would be equivalent to “blowing its own foot off”. They now want you to forget that and just blame Russia while ignoring that:

1. Once the reservoir finishes draining, the river will be much smaller and easier to ford by the AFU.

2. The flooding is forcing the abandonment of Russian defensive positions as well as the destruction of minefields along the River.

3. The destruction of the Dam means Crimea loses its water access.

The strategic benefits are obvious for Ukraine; up to this point Russia could economize in the Kherson sector, as the wide ranging river with no bridges precluded any serious amphibious assault.

By doing this terrorism, they’ve now created a realistic threat of such once the flood waters recede, which will divert Russian reserves to cover this sector instead of allowing them to be used against the Ukrainian offensive further East.

🇺🇦🇷🇺⚡️Water continues to arrive in Novaya Kakhovka, civilians are being evacuated from coastal flooded areas - head of administration

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Downstream of the Dnieper, houses are already floating from the flooded coastal areas.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 “Major General of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Kovalchuk thought about flooding the river. The Ukrainians, he said, even carried out a test strike with HIMARS on one of the locks of the Novokakhovskaya dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the waters of the Dnieper could rise enough to block Russian crossings without flooding nearby areas. villages.

The test was successful, said Kovalchuk ... "

🇺🇦🇷🇺 The flood zone is marked in red. As we can see, this is mainly the left bank.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 On June 1 , the Ukrainian lieutenant colonel Yaroslav Sokyrinsky was liquidated .

The information is confirmed by the sources of the enemy, however, in the obituaries that have appeared, they try to avoid mentioning that Sokyrinsky served in the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry.

A detail that indicates the involvement of the lieutenant colonel in the intelligence agency is the listing of Sokyrynsky's awards, including a commemorative medal - "30 years of military intelligence in Ukraine."

It is quite possible that this is one of the victims of the strikes on the decision-making center at the headquarters of the GUR MOU.
