Russia has begun shifting troops from the eastern bank of the Dnieper River to the Zaporizhzhia and Bakhmut regions of occupied Ukraine, where intense fighting is ongoing as Kyiv attempts to break through the front lines and recapture territory lost to Moscow.
The redeployment of Russia’s Dnieper Group of Forces likely reflects the Kremlin’s belief that a Ukrainian attack across the Dnieper River is increasingly unlikely following the June 6 collapse of the Kakhovka Dam and the resulting flooding, British officials said Monday.
Russia denied responsibility for what happened at the Kahkovka Dam and accused Ukraine of causing the breach with a missile or artillery attack. But an investigation by The New York Times concluded that Moscow is the most likely culprit. “If your objective is to destroy the dam itself, a large explosion would be required,” Michael W. West, a geotechnical engineer and expert in dam safety, told The New York Times. “The [passageway] is an ideal place to put that explosive charge.”

She has also seen the destructive power of the river during high-water years. And although Pett, 66, recently looked
