Ukraine releases Russian audio recording admitting to causing Kakhovka dam collapse

According to Reuters , the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) posted a minute-and-a-half long audio clip on its Telegram channel. The content of the conversation is a conversation in which two men appear to discuss the consequences of the dam collapse in Russian.

Reuters also said it could not independently verify the recording. Russia has not commented on the content of this content. Moscow previously accused Kiev of destroying the dam.

"They (the Ukrainians) didn't attack it. It was our sabotage group," said one of the men in the recording, described by the SBU as a Russian soldier. "They wanted to scare (people) with that dam."

“But it didn't go as planned, and (they did) more than they planned.”

The man also said that "thousands" of animals had died at a "safari park" downstream.

Another man on the recording expressed surprise at the assertion that Russian forces had destroyed the hydroelectric plant and dam.

The SBU did not provide further details about the conversation or the participants. It said it had opened a criminal investigation into war crimes and “ecocide”.

Hundreds of Ukrainians were rescued from rooftops in flooded areas on June 8. The governor of the southern Kherson region said about 600 square kilometers were under water.
