"Kryvyi Rih has a plan A, and B and C." Interview with Alexander Vilkul - about an attempt by a terrorist act in the hometown of Zelensky

Video Day Talking with Vilkul took place today, shortly before new blows along Kryvyi Rih, when the hostile rockets were hit by an industrial enterprise. - Do you connect the dam to the visit of President Zelensky to the raid that happened the day before? The Russians simply cannot put up with the fact that we have a brave and cool president, and they have a lame, scattered bunker grandfather? - I can agree with you that we have a brave and cool president.

But whether it is not related to, I cannot judge. We had a very strong blow to the hydraulic structure of the Karachuniv reservoir. It was an attempt to flood a large part of the city, just wash it away. It was an attempt at a terrorist act directed against civilian and civilians of such a large city as Kryvyi Rih.

- A terrorist act is emotionally… - What can it be? Daggers, their most precious missiles, sparks to hit the dam, into a hydraulic structure in order to flood the part of the city where people sleep, children, civilians. This is not a military object! - Did not pity . . . I try to understand: why beat the local dam in Kryvyi Rih? -Water in any city goes from the reservoir. If there is no such excess river as the Dnieper. We do not have it. These hydraulic structures to provide the city with water.

- Kryvyi Rih is the hometown of the President. Do the Russians really pay such special attention to Kryvyi? - At the beginning of the war we had fights very close to our city - in several hundred meters. Now, thanks to the courage and heroism of our armed forces, the front line has been rejected more than 50 kilometers, and orcs to us from hailstones, from hurricanes, from howitzers 152 caliber is not taken. But the long-range RSSV-tornado, tornado-s-get. The winged rockets get everywhere.

In recent weeks, shelling has been significantly [increased]. Last week, there were a rocket launchers in the oil dew and a difference of one day. Now - a terrorist act, a blow to a hydraulic structure. Now the war. - It is not necessary to talk about some special vigilance of the Russians to Kryvyi Rih, because this is true? Or do you see it? - I think that Kryvyi Rih is fighting, Kryvyi Rih is fighting. Everyone in their place does everything he can.

And every city, every village and Kryvyi Rih as well. We have a people's war, so we will win a hundred percent. - Let's talk about the consequences of this terrorist blow. She saw a video where the inhabitants of Kryvyi Rih swim on inflatable boats. What is the situation with water level in Kryvyi Rih now? - We were evacuating [residents] of all streets in which the flood was whether flooding was possible. In total, 115 houses were flooded, given the farm.

There was a period when the Ingulets River level rose twice by two meters. A set of serious measures is now being held. These are overlapping, it is also a sprinkle of special materials and more. As of now, the flow of water has declined. We saw that the level began to fall - somewhere half a meter fell. There was also a blow to the dagger in another place - 600 millimeters in the water supply - a large enough pipe that supplies water to one of the housing areas of Kryvyi Rih.

This accident has already been eliminated, now the system is being filled. It takes a while. Today in the morning we sent waterways to make people water. That is, many activities. However, seven missiles. Seven rockets are many. - On the other hand, there is now an understanding that the Russians have failed to scare or somehow seriously harm, because they have coped. Yes, they worked all night, overcame the consequences, but now the situation was almost ruined. I understand right? - We still work.

Somewhere 50% were ruined as you say. But we still need to work. If all is well, then today we will handle in the evening. But what we see is small consequences. The threat was that it could wash away part of the city. The threat was a superficial. - Let's talk about the heating season, there is very little time left for him. In the summer, we were warned that it could become one of the most difficult in the history of Ukraine's independence.
