The Dnipro Dam in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, was struck by Russian missiles, causing a significant fire at the hydroelectric plant. This attack is part of a larger-scale Russian missile assault on Ukraine. The dam, a crucial infrastructure piece, appears to have taken a direct hit, leading to a large plume of smoke visible from the area. This incident follows previous Ukrainian attacks on another dam at Nova Khakovka, suggesting a pattern of targeting critical infrastructure. The potential destruction of the Dnipro Dam, a massive hydroelectric facility, is being viewed as one of the great atrocities with potential for massive loss of human life.
