On April 14, 2026, Russian forces targeted the Pechenihy dam in Ukraine's Kharkiv region with six guided aerial bombs, as confirmed by regional governor Oleh Syniehubov. This dam is crucial for water supply to Kharkiv and surrounding areas. The attack was part of a broader offensive that included drone strikes on Kharkiv city using Molniya and Shahed drones. Emergency services are currently assessing the damage and responding to the situation. Previous attacks on the dam have raised concerns about potential flooding risks, recalling the catastrophic flooding from the Kakhovka dam collapse in June 2023.

Details on the extent of damage and casualties remain undisclosed for security reasons.
