Undermining the Kakhovka dam in the territory of Kherson and Zaporozhye regions became a demonstrative terrorist act of Russian invaders against Ukraine. The Kremlin is trying to inflict colossal damage on our country, for which it will be obliged to pay by criminal means and reparations.
This was stated during a meeting of the UN Security Council by Ukraine’s Permanent Representative Serhiy Kislytsya. The broadcast of the meeting of the members of the international organization was broadcast by the publication “Public” (to watch the video, select the page to the end).
“Russia is using the tactics of scorched – in this case, flooded land. In this way, it admits that it does not own these territories, that it will soon lose control over them. Therefore, they destroy them. This is the most technological and environmental disaster since the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in 1986 “, the diplomat stressed.
Kyslitsa also drew the attention of the meeting participants to the humanitarian consequences of this war crime by the invaders. Kherson region, part of Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk regions, controlled by Moscow, Crimea will experience a serious shortage of drinking water.
“Most of the inhabitants of the region had to be evacuated from their homes, they need help with food, clothing, housing. Not to mention the enormous risks that have arisen for the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant due to a sharp drop in the water level necessary to cool the reactors,” he said. He. .
Earlier, GLOBAL HAPPENINGS reported that in the traditional address of President Zelensky, it was said that the deliberate destruction of the dam and other buildings of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station in the Kherson region by the Russian invaders is an environmental bomb of mass destruction. For its own safety, the world must now show that Russia cannot get away with such terror.
“I called on the director of the IAEA to directly and unequivocally condemn today’s Russian terrorist act and to maximize our efforts to dismiss the ZNPP. We agreed on his visit to Ukraine,” the president said.
