During this morning's attack on Ukraine, a Russian missile targeted the Zaporizhzhia Hydro Power Plant dam. The dam is holding on, but the missile hit the trolley with people headed to their early work shift.

There is no threat of the dam breach - states "Ukrhydroenergo" operating the said power plant.

"The fire at the station continues. Emergency services and electrical engineers are working on site fighting the aftermass of the numerous airstrikes. There is no threat of a breach. The situation at the dam of the station is under control,"the company stated.
