Since the dam was built in Soviet times, every page of engineering drawings was in Moscow and she knew where a weak place," the authors of the material said. The dam was erected from a huge concrete block at the base. It passes a small passage from the machine hall. It was in it that the explosive was laid, the authors said. Shortly before the dumping of the dam, American intelligence satellites recorded infrared thermal signals, which indicated the explosion, experts reminded.
"The dam was clearly damaged as a result of the fighting a few months before the breakthrough. The Arch of the Armed Forces damaged one section of the carriageway above the dam, and the Occupants later blew another. Last month, satellite images showed that the water flows uncontrollably through some gates," the article reads. According to experts, the Russians grabbed the version that the dam was "victims of accumulated losses" to deny responsibility for undermining.
Two American engineers, having analyzed data from satellite and seismic activity, said that the cause of the dam of the dam was undermined by explosives in the repair passage or compartment on a concrete basis of the building. "If you want to destroy the dam, you need to make a powerful explosion. The passage is the perfect place to install explosives," said the geotechnik engineer, expert on safety analysis and destruction of dams Michael West.
