The situation on the front line of Russia and Ukraine is tense, and the Russian army is retreating from Khelson . Ukraine said that the elite Russian troops and commanders ran away first, leaving only those mobilized and sacrificed. At present, there are only 2,000 Russian soldiers left on the front line, and their mission is to cover the evacuation of large troops.
Khlsson is very important to both Russia and Ukraine. It controls the water source of Crimea , and also controls important supply lines and sea estuaries in the southern battlefield. Western media once said, "If the Russian army loses Khlsson, Russia will lose." Khlsson is so critical, why did the Russian army withdraw so quickly?
Ukrainian army has received more than one million artillery shells from the United States, and its offensive has become increasingly fierce. Facilities in Kherson were bombarded by Ukrainian army, and supply lines such as roads and bridges have been bombed out of shape.
The deployment of Russian and Ukrainian troops in the region is very unbalanced. Ukraine has invested at least 30,000 troops around Khlsong. Russia originally had more than 10,000 troops in the region, but even fewer people have since begun to withdraw troops. After the rainy season, the Russian army's drone and aviation have difficulty playing their original role. Kherson was in danger.
While withdrawing troops, the Russian side was also evacuating Khelson's residents and demanding that the locals leave immediately. These people will be sent to the east bank of the Dnieper River in . Russia plans to evacuate more than 60,000 people, and 25,000 civilians have been evacuated.
For the Ukrainian army, the fastest way to seize Khlsong is to blow up the new Kahovka Dam. The dam spans the Dnieper River and stores water for the Kahovka Hydropower Station. If the dam is blown up, the consequences will be much more serious than blowing up the Crimea Bridge .
At present, it is raining in the Khlsong area, and the water level of the Kahovka Reservoir is rising continuously. The pouring torrent will quickly flood more than 80 towns in the Dnieper River Basin. Most of the city's areas are not spared. If the Russian troops defending the city do not retreat, they can only wait to be blistered. Khlsong may have a terrible "doomsday scene".
The Ukrainian army can not only eliminate the vitality of the Russian army in Kherson, but also destroy the floating bridge in the Kherson area at one time.
Recently, the Ukrainian army frequently bombed the bridges on the Dnieper River, trying to cut off the Russian military's supply line. The road bridges and railway lines on the locks of the Kahovka Hydropower Station were cut off. The Russian army could only build a pontoon bridge under the bridge to transport materials and retreat residents.
If the pontoon bridge is gone, the Russian army that survived the first wave of floods is likely to be trapped in Khlsun.
As one of the largest large-scale water conservancy projects in Europe, the walls of the new Kahofka Dam are extremely thick. The Ukrainian army cannot defeat the dam in a short period of time by itself, and at least it will have to be blown up for two or three consecutive days. It is reported that the Ukrainian army plans to use underwater drones to blast, and Ukraine will receive a batch of underwater drones, and relevant personnel have already studied underwater blasting courses in the UK.
The highest water level of Kahofka Reservoir can reach 36 meters, but it is only 8 meters normally, and the water body is relatively clear around October. It is relatively easy for Ukrainian to send divers to install the blasting system.
In addition to underwater drones, the Ukrainian army also has shells and Himas systems obtained from the United States. If the attack continues, the new Kahofka Dam may also be blown down.
Recently, the Ukrainian army has been continuously shelling the city of New Kahofka. Sometimes 120 rockets can be fired in a day, and the new Kahofka Dam has been targeted. In response, the Russian side wrote to Security Council , demanding that the Ukrainian army be prevented from destroying the dam. Ukraine in turn accuses the Russian army of possible damage to the dam. Ukrainian President Zelensky said that the Russian army placed explosives in the dam, trying to blow it up and cover the army's evacuation.
Russia and Ukraine accused each other of attempting to blow up the dam, but no matter which side takes action, it will bring about a huge Resident Evil. Zaporo Thermal Nuclear Power Plant is located next to the Kahovka Reservoir. Once the dam is blown up, nuclear power plant is also in danger. The cooling system of the
nuclear power plant requires a lot of water every day to prevent the reactor core from overheating. Blasting the dam is equivalent to cutting off the water supply. At that time, the reactor core melts and dozens of tons of uranium fuel will leak out, and the consequences are quite serious.
Nowadays, the conflict continues to escalate, and Russia and Ukraine are getting more and more aggressive, and all those who should be blown up should not be blown up were blown up. Although there are endless disasters in blowing up the dam, the two sides obviously don’t care about so many, otherwise they wouldn’t have thrown bombs around the Zaporo Thermal Power Plant. The two sides fought to the end, but the local civilians were suffering.
