Ukraine Attacked Kakhovka Dam to Regroup Forces and Inflict Humanitarian Damage: Russia
On Saturday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said the claims are an attempt to cover up Kiev's plans to create an emergency situation at the ZNPP.

In addition, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed Ukraine's allegations as yet "another lie."

The ZNPP came under Russian control in early March 2022 during Russia’s special military operation. The ZNPP has repeatedly come under Ukrainian artillery shelling, raising international concerns over the possibility of causing a nuclear accident.
