The transshipment terminal of the company Nibulon (Kozatska branch) in the village of Kozatske, in Kherson Oblast, was flooded as a result of the destruction of the dam of the Kakhovka HPP.
This is evidenced by images in local social networks.
The terminal was put into operation in 2012.
The grain storage capacity was 76,000 tonnes, the daily capacity of dryers – 3,000 tonnes, the daily capacity for loading onto water transport – 10,000 tonnes.
Background. Ukrhydroenergo reported that as a result of the sabotage of the machine hall from inside, the Kakhovka HPP had been completely destroyed – the station is beyond repair.
It is expected that the reservoir will fully discharge over the course of 4 days. According to Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, this threatens flooding for 80 settlements.
