居民们说,基辅北部一个小村庄蓄意的洪水造成了泥潭,淹没了地窖和田野,但阻止了俄罗斯对首都的袭击,值得所有牺牲。The intentional flooding of a small village north of Kyiv that created a quagmire and submerged cellars and fields, but prevented a Russian attack on the capital, was worth all the sacrifice, residents said.

乌克兰军队在战争初期在德米迪夫(Demydiv)打开了一座大坝,导致伊尔平河(Irpin River)淹没了村庄和周围数千英亩的土地。此后,此举被认为阻止了俄罗斯士兵和坦克突破乌克兰的防线。

“当然,这很好,”一个住在村子里的男子说,但不愿透露他的名字。

“如果他们(俄罗斯军队)会发生什么….能够越过小河,然后进入基辅?”

英国天空新闻5月16日的报道

“我们的村庄被洪水淹没,以防止俄罗斯袭击基辅——这是值得的”

‘Our village was flooded to prevent a Russian attack on Kyiv – it was worth it’

德米迪夫是基辅以北约 30 英里的一个小村庄,在战争初期被乌克兰军队蓄意淹没。

数千英亩的土地被伊尔平河淹没,但它阻止了对乌克兰首都的袭击。

洪水被认为阻止了俄罗斯士兵和坦克突破乌克兰防线。

Volodymyr Artemchuk 告诉路透社:“当然很好。

“如果他们……能够渡过小河然后前往基辅,会发生什么?”

39 岁的 Oleksandr Rybalko 说,超过三分之一的田地被淹。

两个月后,人们仍在使用充气船四处走动,并在任何一片干地上种植蔬菜和花卉。

Demydiv, a small village about 30 miles north of Kyiv, was flooded deliberately by Ukrainian forces earlier in the war.

Thousands of acres were submerged by the Irpin River, but it prevented an attack on the Ukrainian capital.

The flood was credited with stopping Russian soldiers and tanks from breaking though Ukrainian lines.

Volodymyr Artemchuk told Reuters: “Of course it was good.

“What would have happened if they…were able to cross the little river and then went on to Kyiv?”

Oleksandr Rybalko, 39, said more than a third of some fields were flooded.

Two months later, people are still using inflatable boats to move around, and planting vegetables and flowers on any patches of dry land.
