A major dam and hydro-electric power plant in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine suffered a collapse early Tuesday, prompting mass evacuations and fears for large-scale devastation as Ukraine accused Moscow’s forces of committing an act of “ecocide.”
The Soviet Union was forced to blow dams in Ukraine ahead of the German advance, so hopefully this one can be rebuilt as those ones were. Though it will take many many years.
Russian Federation is not the USSR, unfortunately. Capitalism, remember? The mayor of Novaya Kahovka had reportedly said it’s beyond repair. And frankly I am not sure the government is willing to rebuild it at all.
Well sometimes there is a will, they rebuild Mariupol very quickly and this is arguably much more important because water to Crimea. Though also much more expensive and no chance to do it when nazis can blow it anytime again.
