The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and its aftermath.

The destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam has caused widespread flooding, leading to fears of a humanitarian disaster. Russian President Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of a "barbaric act," while Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Moscow of destroying the Russian-held dam. Nearly 6,000 people were evacuated from both sides of the Dnipro river. Diplomatic efforts are underway, with Turkey calling for a comprehensive investigation and France promising to send aid. Meanwhile, Russia is accelerating the manufacture of air defense systems, and the UK says it will not be deterred by "sabre-rattling" from Russia over the delivery of Western weapons to Ukraine.
