UK intelligence: russia is building a water pipeline in Donetsk Oblast due to the shortage of water in the so-called DPR
However, analysts believe that this is unlikely to fully compensate for the existing water shortage
russia is building a water pipeline in Donetsk Oblast due to water shortages in the so-called DPR.
This is stated in the UK intelligence report.
The Siversky-Donets canal, which supplies water to the region, is mainly under Ukrainian control and is subject to shelling by russian forces. On April 28 of this year, the leader of the DPR announced a threatening shortage of regional water supply.
"To compensate for its lack of success in capturing and retaining the canal russia is likely constructing a water pipeline to mitigate the water shortage in Donetsk City. However, this is highly unlikely to fully compensate for the occupied regions’ reduced access to water," assessed British analysts.
Background. Previously, Mind reported that the defenders had destroyed 13 artillery systems, 4 tanks, and 4 armoured fighting vehicles of the enemy over the day. The army of the aggressor shrank by 650 occupiers.
