The Karakova Dam was breached on June 5th 2023 at around 2:50 in the morning local time.I believe that a structural collapse, not an explosion. Russia is still to blame for this calamity, but I believe the structural failure occurred due to overtopping and hydrodynamic scour due to frequent use of the southernmost sluice gate and spillway.The full satellite footage and intelligence data can be found on my paid substack: https://ryanmcbeth.substack.com/p/how…
