TL;DR Summary

The collapse of the Kakhovka dam in Ukraine has caused a significant fall in water levels on the Dnipro River, jeopardizing water sources for farmland and revealing long-lost relics. The dam's collapse has sparked an environmental and humanitarian crisis in Ukraine's Kherson region, with Russia and Ukraine blaming each other for causing the collapse.
