[Russian Foreign Ministry strongly condemns the destruction of the Kahovka Hydropower Station] the Russian Foreign Ministry issued a statement on 6 June local time, strongly condemning the destruction of the Kahovka Hydropower Station by the Ukrainian armed forces. The Russian Foreign Ministry said that the destruction of the Ukrainian army led to a large-scale humanitarian and environmental disaster. The explosion of the reservoir dam led to a sharp rise in the water level in the lower reaches of the Dnieper River, inundated villages and towns, and thousands of residents needed to be evacuated. Agriculture in the region and the ecosystem of the Dnieper estuary have suffered huge losses as a result of the destruction of the Kiev regime. The decline in the water level of the Cahovka reservoir will also have an impact on the water supply in Crimea, and the protection of agricultural land in the Helsson area will also be disturbed.
