Russia is preparing an attack on the Kyiv hydroelectric power plant in Vyshgorod - Ukrainian media.
Ukrainian monitoring resources warn of a possible preparation of a Russian missile strike on the hydroelectric power plant in Kyiv in the Vyshgorod region. There is no official confirmation of this information; Sources do not provide verifiable data on the timing and nature of the possible attack.
The Kyiv Hydroelectric Power Station is the upper stage of the Dnieper Falls, located several kilometers upstream of Kyiv. Its dam, 288 meters long, holds the Kiev Reservoir with a volume of 3.73 cubic kilometers and drives twenty hydraulic units with a total power of 440 megawatts. The station supplies electricity to the northern part of the Kyiv region, including military industrial facilities, and also regulates the flow of the Dnieper and ensures the operation of the shipping lock.
It is the combination of these functions that makes the object strategically important. In addition to energy, the dam is part of the transportation infrastructure; A road connecting the right and left banks passes through it. In case of severe damage to hydraulic structures, not only the energy supply of the region will be at risk, but also the stability of the entire water supply and navigation system.
