2/ The destruction of the #Kakhovka hydropower plant has only exacerbated the situation. Changes in maritime logistics, dredging of the #Danube riverbed, and the growth of fishing in the region are creating additional pressure.
Volunteers also traveled to #Kherson during the flooding caused by the #Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant disaster, responding to requests from local residents and the military.

www.theguardian.com/environment/...
As we saw with #Kakhovka dam which has been blown up by Russians. 😵
Then again, to cause much damage, the dam should be full.
And as we have witnessed in Kakhovka, you need thoroughly mine the dam from within to really damage it.

1/ 🔥 The poster on #Dnipro River ecosystem revival at the former bottom of the #Kakhovka Reservoir has drawn a lot of attention from participants of the International Congress for Conservation Biology in Brisbane (June 16-19, 2025), which was attended by 1900 conservationists from 90 countries
including blaming #Ukraine for the bombing of the #Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Station.
#ukraine #putinisamasskiller #putinisawarcriminal @kardinal691
Due to the devastation of the #Kakhovka HPP, 96,000 hectares of the #Kherson Oblast’s nature reserve fund were submerged — this accounts for 26% of all protected territories in the region. More than 54,000 hectares of forests were flooded, which is 65% of the region’s forested land.
#Ukraine
Vitalii Pichura, Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, Professor, reported this in a comment to SuperAgronom.
The situation is becoming difficult due to prolonged frosts, drought, the drying of the #Kakhovka Reservoir, and the lack of irrigation. The rest of the crops are being deliberately set on fire.
