Ukraine's Largest Hydroelectric Dam In Critical Condition After Russian Strikes

Russian President Putin meets with servicemen involved in Russia-Ukraine conflict, in Moscow

Ukraine's largest hydroelectric dam is in critical condition following a series of Russian strikes on the country's power grid. Regional military leaders have reported the dam's precarious state after the sixth wave of attacks on the energy system. The Dnipro power plant is now inaccessible due to Saturday's assaults, causing traffic disruptions in the area. The energy ministry has warned of potential blackouts in certain parts of the country.

The use of advanced weaponry such as drones, electronic warfare systems, and sophisticated mines has posed new challenges for Ukrainian troops.
