The American press claims that US satellites allegedly detected signs of an explosion at the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station before its destruction.

Shortly before the destruction of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station, an explosion could have occurred on it. The American edition of The New York Times writes about this, citing an anonymous source in the administration of US President Joe Biden.

The publication of the publication claims that US satellites allegedly detected signs of an explosion at a hydroelectric power station before its destruction. This was made possible by the work of infrared sensors, which revealed the heat corresponding to a strong explosion.



US intelligence services admit the possibility that the dam of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station could have been purposefully blown up. According to an unnamed US administration official, there is a version that Russia was allegedly involved in the explosion. But the United States does not have convincing evidence of this, the source said.

At the same time, the American administration admits that the destruction of the dam could have been preceded by its previous damage. But the most likely version of what happened is now considered an explosion. At the same time, of course, the American authorities, as well as representatives of Ukraine, are not able to explain why Russia would need to arrange such a diversion against its own object. Indeed, it is Russia that faces the greatest risks in the destruction of a hydroelectric power station: it flooded Russian territories, the station was under the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation, due to the destruction of the dam, problems with the water supply of the Crimean peninsula may arise, and these are far from all the negative consequences of the events at the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station.

However, in the United States and in the West as a whole, little thought is given to the expediency of this or that action for Russia, since our country has been appointed by the "collective West" to the role of "global Evil", and therefore it can even be attributed to it even completely irrational actions that harm Russia itself, such as undermining "Northern Streams".

    They lie like they breathe ... you just need to come up with something to justify the Sumerians and their idiotic trick that makes no sense
    As the threat grows, they and other dams can easily be destroyed ... and nuclear power plants on the territory of ukrov are enough to frolic with the environment and show the world their crazy tactics

      Not the fact that they lie specifically about the explosion.
      On this site, the version has already been expressed that the main undermining was done by English scuba divers, prepared by a terror group. And the MLRS salvo from Ukraine was only a cover.

        change "English" to "globalist" and it will be plausible.

        In the days of private armies, intelligence agencies, and even private STATES, the logic of "realpolitik" has changed dramatically. The essence of what is happening: the world oligarchic revolution: "Oligarchies of all countries unite!" The Russian-Ukrainian conflict is PART of the global world transition from nation-states to districts (as in a movie about "Sonya the Mockingbird")

      There is a video (the question of its authenticity is open) of the explosion on the dam at 2:45. So the fixation of this explosion by the satellite is quite probable. But the destruction of the dam began at least as early as 2:35.

    If it’s like “revealed”, then it’s definitely “followed”, and in the presence of hundreds of thousands of places much hotter and more important, it only means that they knew for sure and waited for the Ukrainians to tear the dam.

      A very similar situation was at Chernobyl. hi

    And why don't Westerners simply (without any politics) inspect the presence / use of the same English underwater drones recently delivered to Ukraine?
    Deliveries after all were openly declared.

      According to some program, the footage of these explosions was already shown at night, so the Americans were in a hurry, as if they had recorded them.
      There were two explosions, underwater. It looks like in the water lines of the turbines. The shooting was from the downstream, the water fountains were not very large, as it should be if the explosions were from the side of the reservoir.
      This explains why the building of the hydroelectric power station with the machine room, as I understand it, was made of monolithic reinforced concrete. Streams of water could not split it.
      Explosives could be delivered by underwater drones (most likely), or by combat swimmers (Ukraine has had such units since the Soviet era).

    There are a lot of materials on the Internet that the hydrotechnical concrete of the dam was designed for a nuclear strike. MLRS could make holes at best. The bunkers of the Manerheim lines were hit point-blank with calibers of 203 mm (Stalin's sledgehammer). Special concrete-piercing projectiles. And they were able to destroy it only after they pulled up tons of explosives. The concrete in the dam is close in technical characteristics to the concrete of the bunkers.

      . The concrete in the dam is close in technical characteristics to the concrete of the bunkers.

      So the concrete is in place. The locks at the top of the dam were demolished.

        Constipation. The lock is for the passage of ships through the dam.
        Even if you remove the constipation completely, there are spillways behind them, they are designed to discharge water.

    And according to the French monitoring portal Theia-land, the water level in the Kakhovka reservoir was artificially raised from 14 to 17,5 meters shortly before the dam burst.


    Satellite images show that the Kakhovskaya HPP began to collapse a few days earlier.

      The problem is that the water level in the Kakhovka reservoir is regulated by the Kakhovka dam.

        For more than a month, if not more, the locks did not work normally due to the constant shelling of the Nazis, which did not even allow repair work to be carried out on them ...

        I'm not even talking about the purposeful discharge of water from the upper tiers of the HPP cascade.

    The democratic West is ready to attribute the old woman who was shot down in an accident in Zhmerinka to the intrigues of Russia. Well, if you lie, then globally, as the great Goebbels bequeathed ..

    And if you look at bloggers before the destruction of the dam, as you will see, Ukraine was dumping water. And it's May 28th.

    8 days ago

    Well, then abruptly the water left, isn't it strange? At first, someone drowned the city and the video shows that the water was at the level of the engine room

    This video was filmed a day before the explosion and listen to what he says about some kind of explosion and then it was very loud
