In Ukraine’s bombed out reservoir a huge forest has grown – is it a return to life or a toxic timebomb?

On 6 June 2023, #Russia blew up the #Kakhovka Dam — unleashing a man-made #disaster that devastated #ecosystems, drowned entire communities, and impacted nearly a million #civilians in different ways.

While the scale of #destruction was staggering, the tactic was far from new. It followed a familiar pattern: targeting civilian #infrastructure and deliberately inflicting harm — something Russia has repeated across #Ukraine countless times.

Water at war: The long-term environmental consequences of the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine

Water resources and infrastructure are also affected by the ongoing armed conflict in Ukraine: In June 2023, the Kakhovka Dam, which held water from one of Europe's largest reservoirs, collapsed as a result of military damage.

Destruction of Ukraine dam triggered toxic ‘time bomb,’ researchers say
