Back in December, the Washington Post reported that Ukraine’s Kherson Counteroffensive Major General Andrey Kovalchuk had admitted to plotting the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam at some point in the future, presumably meaning now.

The Post reported that Kovalchuk had “considered flooding the river,” and that Ukraine had “even conducted a test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova Kakhovka Dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper’s water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages.”

“The test was a success,” the Post added, quoting Kovalchuk, “but the step remained a last resort. He held off.”
