Titanium plant in Crimea is affected by the explosion of Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, Russia prepares evacuation - intelligence

The Main Intelligence Directorate reported this. 

As a result of the June 6 terrorist attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant and the resulting lack of water in the North Crimean Canal, production processes at the Crimean Titan plant in Armiansk have been disrupted to a critical level.

“The Russians consider it impossible to resume work in the minimum proper mode. Information about the possible shutdown of the Crimean Titan is circulating in the territory of the temporarily occupied Armiansk,” the press service writes.

The Russian military engineers have been planting explosives in the plant and the surrounding area for the past few days. 

"A terrorist attack at the Crimean Titan enterprise, which the invading Russian forces are preparing for, would mean an artificial man-made disaster, terrible in its consequences. The refrigeration equipment of Crimean Titan uses about 200 tons of process ammonia,” the intelligence explains and adds that in the event of an explosion at the plant, an ammonia cloud will cover the surrounding areas in half an hour, depending on the wind direction.

First of all, the temporarily occupied settlements of Armiansk, Krasnoperekopsk district and southern districts of the Kherson region are under threat.

• Earlier, the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, Prokudin, reported that the Russian troops had mined the Crimean Titan chemical plant on the temporarily occupied peninsula.

• On June 9, the National Resistance Center wrote that Russians were preparing to escape from the north of the temporarily occupied Crimea, in particular from Armiansk, where they mined the Crimean Titan chemical plant.
