Undermining the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station – the main thing

As you know, after the destruction of the dam, the Russian invaders did not evacuate the local population from the temporarily captured settlements at all.

People were forced to sit on the roofs of their houses and wait for help. From some settlements that are still under the control of the occupiers, people still managed to be saved and taken out by the Ukrainian military.

Subsequently, the Russian invaders declared that only those locals who had Russian passports could evacuate.
