Ukraine's environment minister has warned that the attack on the Kakhovka dam could have devastating consequences for the country's natural environment and its people.
Ruslan Strilets told DW that the dam is a critical source of fresh water for millions of Ukrainians, and that its destruction could leave up to one million people without access to clean water.
Strilets also said that the attack on the dam could have a devastating impact on the country's wildlife, as the dam provides a vital habitat for many species of fish and birds.
The attack on the Kakhovka dam is just the latest in a series of environmental disasters that have been caused by the war in Ukraine. In recent months, Russian forces have also been accused of destroying forests, polluting rivers, and damaging agricultural land.
The environmental damage caused by the war in Ukraine is likely to be long-lasting, and it will take years to repair.
