Devastation and Desperation: Life in a Ukrainian Town After Dam Breach

A suspected Russian sabotage operation destroyed the dam that holds back the Dnipro River to form the giant Kakhovka reservoir, leaving half a million people without water. The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, currently under Russian occupation, is now at risk due to the water shortage. Local farmers are trying to access old wells and small streams to find alternative sources of water. Meanwhile, Russian artillery shells continue to hit Ukrainian positions, and flooding has killed dozens of people and forced thousands to flee.
