Possible Russian involvement in Ukraine dam explosion and cholera outbreak

The death toll from the Kakhovka Dam collapse has risen to 45, with evidence increasingly pointing to an explosion set off by Russia as the cause. Water contamination is becoming an increasingly dire problem in southern Ukraine provinces downstream from the dam. A Swedish parliament defense committee report warns that a military attack from Russia can't be ruled out, urging Swedish leaders to prepare for such an eventuality. The first 10 days of Ukraine's counteroffensive have yielded small gains for Ukraine and some effective defensive operations by Russia, both coming at a high cost in casualties.
