He also noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are planning to blow up the station with the subsequent accusation of the Russian Armed Forces of indiscriminate strikes.

In addition, the Ukrainian military plans to widely cover this provocation in the Ukrainian and Western media.

According to him, the Armed Forces of Ukraine placed artillery and MLRS on the territory adjacent to the station.

“In the event of the plant being blown up, 11 settlements with a total population of up to 12.5 thousand people will remain without water supply,” Mizintsev stated.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense reported that militants of the Ukrainian armed formations mined the sides of an asphalt road near Krivoy Rog and did not notify local residents about this.
