Original Note:
Russia most likely destroyed the dam. Shelling alone could not have caused such extensive damage. Analysis of the information available indicates that the destruction was caused by pre-emplaced explosives positioned at critical points within the dam's structure. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/highly-likely-russia-behind-ukraine-dam-collapse-international-experts-2023-06-16/ https://archive.ph/2023.06.10-215615/https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-reported-attack-on-ukraines-kakhovka-dam
