Due to the flood due to the explosion of the Kakhovka hydroelectric station, the temporarily occupied Kinburn Spit was cut off from the mainland. On Wednesday evening, June 7, the road near the village of Heroiske, which connected the peninsula with the mainland, was completely flooded.

This was reported by the press service of the state enterprise "Forests of Ukraine".

"As experts predicted, as a result of the explosion of the Kakhovka hydroelectric station, the isthmus at the end of the bay outside the delta of the Dnieper will be almost completely flooded approximately 50 hours after the dam breakthrough," the message says.

Large-scale fires were also recorded on the peninsula. It is no longer possible to get from there by land transport to the mainland.

Recall, the general director of Ukrhydroenergo Igor Sirota said that the Kakhovka hydroelectric station blown up by Russian terrorists cannot be restored. It takes at least 5 years to build a new station 24/7.
