No threat of Kyiv HPP dam breach following Russian strike - disinfo watchdog

That’s according to Andriy Kovalenko, chief of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council, Ukrinform reports.

"There are no threats regarding the Kyiv HPP dam. It is impossible to destroy it with missile. It is not worth comparing with Kherson region where the dam was mined from within. The Russians are exploiting the topic to incite panic, nothing more," Kovalenko stressed.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said Russian invaders on August 26 launched one of the biggest combined strikes on Ukraine, involving over a hundred missiles of various types and nearly 100 Shahed kamikaze drones. As a result of the attack on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, 15 regions were affected.
