I read elsewhere that the dam supplied water to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant too. So, Russian aggression is once again increasing the risk of another nuclear incident in Ukraine. Given the fact that their army also tried to dig trenches in Chernobyl, it's clear that they don't take that threat seriously, though.
