Ukrainian journalists identified that commanders and troops of Russia’s 205th Separate Cossack Motor Rifle Brigade were stationed at the occupied Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant at the time of the June 6 dam explosion.
Schemes, a project by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and the Slidnsto.Info investigative outlet published intercepted conversations of the 205th brigade that suggest the explosion was pre-planned by Russian forces.
The June 6 Kakhovka Dam explosion brought catastrophic environmental and economic damage on both banks of the Dnipro River in the south of Ukraine. Thousands of houses and hectares of agricultural land were flooded. Dozens of people were killed or injured, and the local animal population was devastated.
Journalists published a list of almost 400 Russian servicemen of the 205th brigade who had occupied the power plant.
