DOD Addresses Breach In Dnipro River Dam In Ukraine, And Who May Have Been Responsible

"So can the DOD share any evidence as to who might have done this? And are you entertaining the possibility that it might have been Ukraine?”

WASHINGTON - Pentagon Press Secretary Air Force Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said that the Department of Defense is “aware of increased fighting in Ukraine” and continues to assess how the breach in the Dnipro River dam could have occurred.

When Ryder was asked, "So can the DOD share any evidence as to who might have done this? And are you entertaining the possibility that it might have been Ukraine?”, Ryder replied, "We're continuing to assess how this could have happened”.

He went on to say, “I'm not going to get into hypotheticals or speculate. I think it's very clear, however, the reason we're in this situation is because Russia invaded Ukraine. It's obviously a terrible humanitarian tragedy."
