A major dam on the Dnipro River in southern Ukraine was destroyed early Tuesday, sending torrents of water cascading through the breach, flooding a war zone downstream, putting tens of thousands of residents at risk and raising the possibility of long-lasting environmental and humanitarian disasters.
Ukraine and Russia quickly blamed each other for the calamity. Officials in Kyiv said Moscow’s forces had blown up the Russian-controlled dam in the predawn hours, and President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine pointed the finger at “Russian terrorists.” The Kremlin’s spokesman, Dmitry S. Peskov, denied any Russian involvement and described the destruction as “sabotage.”
