Quote: "Several pro-Russian Telegram channels covering the Russian war against Ukraine reported that "in the village of Karlivka (temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk Region) nationalist battalions have mined the dam of the Karlivske Reservoir. "
Details: At the same time, referring to the Russian Defence Ministry, the propagandists report that "if the dam is blown up, there will be 6 settlements in the flood zone with a total population of over 10,000 people".
The Centre for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defenсe Council of Ukraine says that this may be a psychological ploy by the occupiers, but the possibility of such a plan being implemented cannot be completely ruled out.
