After large-scale attacks on energy and infrastructure facilities, the Russian army received orders to hit the dams of Ukraine. Their goals at this stage are water supply systems, reservoirs, dams, logistics. President Vladimir Zelensky officially announced this. When these attacks are possible - later in the story. Warning from Zelensky The day before, the head of state officially announced that Russia is conducting the second stage of its winter operation to strike critical infrastructure in Ukrainian regions. According to him, the current targets of Russian attacks are water supply, reservoirs, dams, logistics, etc.. “Russia’s plans are clear, but now we are stronger than in winter. We need to fight for funding,” Zelensky stressed.. His statement came after a meeting in Kyiv on all regions affected by Russian strikes. At the same time, the President noted that authorities in all regions must seriously approach the protection of relevant facilities. “Every community must have a serious attitude, an absolutely responsible attitude towards the protection of their respective sites,” he added. Probable period According to the president, Russia plans to hit our dams “in the near future”. Military expert Pavel Lakiychuk, who has long called water supply facilities the enemy’s new targets, believes that probable attacks should be expected in the summer. According to him, water supply facilities may be under threat, particularly in large cities.. However, according to the expert, their scale and effectiveness will depend on the overall effectiveness of enemy attacks and weather conditions. In addition, in the summer the enemy will likely continue and even intensify attacks on the transport infrastructure of Ukraine. " These are infrastructures of both industry and passenger transportation. It was, is and will be. Obviously, there will be even more,” he said in a commentary for KIEV24. We are talking about a wide range of purposes - from locomotives and ships in ports to electrical distribution network facilities. Schedules and reserves for only two weeks According to Ukrainian media, Russia has already begun to implement its operation against water supply systems, in particular in the Donetsk region. Thus, on March 23, the enemy destroyed a dam on the Seversky Donets River in the Raigorodok area with two aerial bombs. Due to the fact that approximately two weeks of reserves remain in the reservoirs, water supply schedules will be introduced in the Donetsk region. The general director of KP Company Water of Donbass, Igor Novak, informed Suspilna Donbass about this.. Due to the fact that the hydraulic power plant was destroyed by shelling, it is not possible to fill the water intakes on the First and Second rises of the Seversky Donets - Donbass canal.
" Therefore, water supply schedules will be introduced in the cities of Donetsk region. We also ask people to use water rationally and economically,” Novak said.. Let us recall that the Russians already undermined the dam in Raigorodka in 2022 after retreating from the Liman. Ukraine later restored it with funds from the International Committee of the Red Cross.. Currently, the dam is located in the rear of the Ukrainian group in the Liman direction. .
