Russia’s occupation ‘authorities’ report that Kakhovka Hydroelectric Station’s electricity production halted

Head of the occupation “administration” of the Kherson region Vladimir Saldo has told Rossiya 24 TV that the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant is no longer producing electricity.

“The electricity which the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant produced served to balance the general energy supply, therefore, it does not play a significant role in the energy supply. As of today, the turbines don’t produce energy and there’s no need for it,” he said (quote according to RIA Novosti).

Today, the news emerged that the occupation “administration” of Nova Kakhovka in the Kherson region had fled the city due to shelling.

On November 11, the Ukrainian army recaptured Kherson. Earlier, the Russian Defence Ministry announced that all troops had been redeployed to the left bank of the Dnipro River, as ordered by Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu.

On 12 November, regional military administration, police and security service resumed operation in liberated Kherson. On 13 November, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited the city.
