A Russian rocket attack targeted the Peceneg reservoir dam in the Kharkiv region, leading to the suspension of road traffic on this essential route for supplying Ukrainian troops. The local mayor, Oleksandr Gusarov, confirmed that, although traffic was heavy at the time of the attack, no casualties were reported. The closure of this route affects the supply of the city of Vovceansk, besieged by Russian forces, but the Ukrainian army stated that the impact on the front will be minimal, considering that the infrastructure was already a constant target of attacks.
Ukrainian authorities are working on repairing the road and have prepared plans to mitigate the effects of attacks on critical infrastructure, emphasizing that there are alternative routes and sufficient supplies for the troops on the front line. Attacks on dams are prohibited by international law due to the catastrophic risks they entail.
