In an address to the Bucharest Nine Summit in Vilnius, Lithuania on Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of “internally detonating” explosives inside a large hydro plant in Nova Kakhovka. The Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant was critically damaged shortly before 3 a.m. Tuesday, flooding dozens of cities across the region and forcing hundreds of Ukrainians to evacuate. “This is the largest man-made environmental disaster in Europe in decades. It is the most dangerous terrorist in the world,” said Zelensky in a Facebook post.
