The Ukrainian military blew up a dam at the entrance to Demidov at the beginning of a full-scale invasion of the invaders on Ukrainian soil. This helped stop the Russian army on the outskirts of Kyiv.

The head of the region noted that people in the village are sympathetic to the situation, but the issue needs to be resolved as quickly as possible..

Recall, on February 25, the Armed Forces of Ukraine blew up a bridge across the Irpin River to prevent the enemy from breaking through towards Kyiv, as well as a dam at the entrance to Demidy near the village of Kozarovichi. The dam prevented the flow of water into the Irpen River from the Kyiv reservoir. After the explosion, the river overflowed its banks, and the village was flooded.
