The Kherson region's operational services reported that the AFU attacked the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station at night, possibly from the Olkha MLRS. As a result, three spans collapsed due to water pressure. 22 thousand people are in the potential flood zone.

Ukraine traditionally keeps on chanting it was Russia. Bright sparks. Kakhovka is now controlled by Russia, there are Russian troops. Would it shell its people?

The videos are the curtesy of the region’s operational services.
