As Censor.NET reported, on the morning of June 6, it became known that the Russian occupiers had blown up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant. The explosion completely destroyed the engine room, and the station is beyond repair.
Evacuations have begun in the region. As many as 80 settlements may be flooded. In total, 16 thousand people are in the critical zone on the right bank of the Dnipro River. The State Emergency Service has published a list of safe places to evacuate residents of Kherson region and is evacuating people from the flooded areas. The left bank of the Dnipro was particularly badly affected.
The explosion of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant threatens the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, but the situation is now under control. The explosion caused 150 tons of oil to flow into the Dnipro River.
President Volodymyr Zelensky held an emergency meeting of the National Security and Defense Council, which ordered evacuations from the risk areas. The hydroelectric power plant explosion was also discussed at a meeting of the Stavka.
The Kremlin claims that the Russians were not involved in the explosion of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant and puts all the blame on Ukrainians.
