Explaining the safety of the Vyshhorod hydroelectric dam to Kyiv residents.

In the fall of 2022 panic spread across Kyiv: what would happen if the russians struck the Vyshhorod hydroelectric power plant? We told people the same way we had during the fires in the Zone: without exaggeration, with science in hand.

On air, Yaroslav Yemelianenko explained why there was no reason to panic. There would be no killer wave and no parts of the city washed away. Even in the worst-case scenario, a few low-lying areas would gradually flood. And even that scenario is not easy to bring about: the dam is strong, and air defense is on alert. The scientific basis was provided by Mark Zheleznyak.

Informing people at moments of alarm is our constant work.
