Share: After damage to the dam of the Belgorod Reservoir, the structure began to leak water. According to the Ukrainian military, this led to the flooding of the positions of Russian units and significantly complicated their logistics. As the Russian Telegram channel MNS reports, on October 24, the Armed Forces of Ukraine allegedly launched a missile attack on the Belgorod Dam. According to Russian sources, "the hydrotechnical structure was attacked by three HIMARS rockets.

Buildings with technical equipment, the lifting mechanisms of one of the locks and the crest of the dam were damaged," Russian media said. After the incident, the Ukrainian military reported a sharp drop in the water level in the reservoir. The 16th Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted: "After the attack on the Belgorod Dam, the latter began to leak water. According to Russian media reports, the water level in the reservoir dropped by one meter in just one day.

There are already reports of Russian dugouts being flooded. " The corps' statement emphasizes that the situation affects the enemy's logistics: "The units that crossed the Siverskyi Donets actually found themselves cut off from the main forces. This greatly complicates the supply and movement of the enemy," the military unit added. Information about the damage to the building was confirmed by the Russian Telegram channel "Ash".

The report states that "at night, the water in the Belgorod Reservoir started to go down - probably after the shelling, the dam was seriously damaged and began to leak water. The water level dropped by more than a meter. " According to the channel's sources, in the area of ​​the village of Grafivka of the Shebekinsky District and downstream of the Siversky Dinets, water flooded the dugouts where the Russian military were stationed.

The governor of the Belgorod region of Russia reported that ten plots of land were flooded in the Shebekinsky district, and 16 residents of settlements located below the dam were evacuated to temporary accommodation. Some people moved in with relatives. We will remind you that the Blhorod region borders Kharkiv region, and one of the key logistics lines for the supply of Russian troops in the east of Ukraine passes through its territory.
