<\/p>\n

A Russian trooper revealed the brutal damage from Moscow\u2019s strike on a Ukrainian dam, saying his own force was washed away and left \u201cin underpants\u201d hanging from trees.<\/p>\n

In June, the Kakhovka Dam was breached, leading to a massive flood along the Dnipro River in Kherson. At least 53 Ukrainians died and caused an environmental disaster – destroying animal habitats and the homes of thousands.<\/p>\n

While the perpetrators behind the blast and dam breach have not been confirmed, it is widely believed Moscow did it, as they occupied Kakhovka at the time.<\/p>\n

And now, an intercepted phone call from a Russian soldier points to new detais.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the call, released by Ukraine’s Military Intelligence (HUR) and reported by the Kyiv Post, the man says: \u201cWe got caught in the f****** wave when we blew the f***ing dam.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose of us who managed to swim out swam out, and then the f****** in their underpants were removed from the trees.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Russian soldier then implies military authorities tried to hide the true scale of their losses, adding: \u201cAnd they said that only seven people were missing, stinking *****.\u201d<\/p>\n

The soldier also said in the call that his unit was being sent to the Zaporizhzhia region, and added that he expects the fighting to carry on for \u201ctwo years at least\u201d because Ukraine is \u201cbiting back really hard\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Denise Brown, UN Resident & Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine, said earlier this month that Nikopol has \u201calmost no water left\u201d after the dam\u2019s destruction.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cWhat is absolutely shocking is that there is almost no water left in the river.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe UN and local authorities supply Nikopol residents with drinking water. There are 20 sites around the city and huge containers that are refilled three times a day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of destroying the dam at the time, calling it a \u201cbarbaric\u201d war crime done at the behest of the West, which Kyiv denies.<\/p>\n

It comes as Greenpeace sounded the alarm over Ukraine\u2019s russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, saying the International Atomic Energy Agency isn\u2019t able to safely inspect it.<\/p>\n

Shaun Burnie and Jan Vande Putte, the group\u2019s nuclear specialists, said that Russia\u2019s military is also likely \u201cto be using the proximity of the nuclear power plant as a shield\u201d.<\/p>\n

They added that \u201cthe IAEA risks normalising what remains a dangerous nuclear crisis, unprecedented in the history of nuclear power, while exaggerating its actual influence on events on the ground\u201d.<\/p>\n

In the past day alone, Russian troops have shelled Zaporizhzhia the region 148 times, injuring a 23-year-old man.<\/p>\n
