Zelenskyy: The targets of the enemy were the Kaniv and Dnister HPPs

The Russians have once again targeted Ukrainian hydroelectric power plants, wanting to cause a large-scale environmental disaster.

The first Stavka took place, for which the new Secretary of the National Security Council Oleksandr Lytvynenko was responsible for convening. The challenges are very serious, said President of Ukraine Володимир Зеленський Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Russian terrorists once again attacked the Ukrainian energy sector. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, Minister of Energy Herman Galushchenko, Chairman of the Boards of Ukrenergo and Naftogaz Volodymyr Kudrytskyi and Oleksiy Chernyshov reported on the damage and restoration work. They discussed the most effective methods of physical protection and their implementation at other facilities.

That night, the Kaniv and Dnister HPPs became the conscious targets of the enemy. The terrorist country wants a repeat of the ecological disaster in the Kherson region. But now not only Ukraine is under threat, but also Moldova. The water will not stop in front of the border pillars, just as the Russian war will not stop, if it is not stopped together and in time in Ukraine, the President noted.

It will be recalled that on the morning of March 22, Russian troops launched missile strikes on numerous locations in Ukraine, including the energy sector.

Unfortunately, the largest HPP of Ukraine – Dnipro HPP in Zaporizhzhya – has also been hit. Currently, there is damage to both stations and the dam. In Dnipro HPP-2 there is a direct hit of two missiles in the resistance. Broken crane beams.

USM previously reported that the shelling by Russian troops of the Dnipro HPP in Zaporizhzhia on the night of March 22 caused oil products to leak into the Dnipro
