CrimeaPRESS reports:
Due to the destruction of the dam of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station, water now does not reach the entrance to the channels dug from the reservoir, including the North Crimean one. The fact that the Kakhovka Sea no longer exists, and the Dnieper water does not go to the Crimea writes BBC, illustrating the situation with satellite images. They show that the Kakhovka reservoir (commissioned in 1956) ceased to exist, the Dnieper entered the old channel.
Four systems of irrigation canals that fed farmlands on both banks of the Dnieper were drained. The scale of this ecological catastrophe is now simply impossible to calculate.
