Thousands flee homes as collapse of dam is blamed on Russian forces
Ukrainian authorities call for people living downstream of Nova Kakhovka dam to evacuate in face of potentially deadly flooding.
Thousands of people have been forced to flee their homes and an ecological disaster has been unleashed on southern Ukraine by the collapse of a major hydroelectric dam on the Dnipro River, which Kyiv said was blown up by Russia in a desperate attempt to ward off a Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, declared the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam an "environmental bomb of mass destruction" and said only liberating the entire country could guarantee against new "terrorist" acts.
Volunteers in small boats rescue a woman called Yulia and her dogs from an apartment block in central Kherson around 300 meters from the Dnipro river on June 7, 2023 in Kherson, Ukraine. Rescue efforts continue after a major dam and hydroelectric power plant in southern Ukraine were destroyed, unleashing flooding near the front lines.

Thousands of people have been forced to flee their homes and an ecological disaster has been unleashed on southern Ukraine by the collapse of a major hydroelectric dam on the Dnipro River, which Kyiv said was blown up by Russia in a desperate attempt to ward off a Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, declared the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam an "environmental bomb of mass destruction" and said only liberating the entire country could guarantee against new "terrorist" acts.

Rescue efforts continue after a major dam and hydroelectric power plant in southern Ukraine were destroyed, unleashing flooding near the front lines.
