War in Ukraine. The horrors of war by Nikopol

The city of Nikopol near the front line in the south is also regularly hit by Russian forces and half of its pre-war population of 100,000 people has left. The region has already been badly hit by an explosion at the Kakhovka dam on June 6 which caused significant flooding and killed dozens of people. Upstream from the dam, the Kakhovka reservoir – 100km long and up to 10km wide – is running low. Local residents fill their bottles with non-potable water at a water distribution centre in Nikopol.
