The second explosion managed to destroy the lock only, not the structure itself. The Kachovka dam was under total control of the Russians, could only be destroyed from the inside (with hell lot more of explosions than the Kazarovychi dam) this dam is build it could withhold a nuclear attack. How did Ukrainian forces destroy it with GMLR, artillery or whatever?

Eh - did I imply they did?
I was just describing that the burden of evidence is against the Russians now, that all seem to agree on this.
Initially there were suggestions that the damage to the dam, visible already several days before, may have caused the collapse. I stayed open to this possibility while the story unfold. But now no more. The evidence seems to be very clear.
I say "seems", intentionally, and often. This is war. Media get manipulated by both sides, intel services are involved from all sides. The news is a war zone. Its important to keep that on mind. See how the story on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline explosions has turned. The scenario that initially was thought to be the most unlikely - is now the main suspect.
