Russia has struck a dam in Kryvyi Rih with the likely intention of washing away pontoon bridges to slow a potential Ukrainian advance.
The attack on civilian infrastructure came after more targeted missile strikes on power grids in Kharkiv, indicating Russia’s growing willingness to cripple Ukraine as much as possible in its hasty retreat from the country.
Recent counteroffensives near Kherson have led Ukrainian intelligence officials to report that Russia may be considering ‘regrouping’ from several regions, though the extent of retreats similar to the dramatic rout from Izyum remains unclear.
