Residents make there way along submerged roads, as the dam breach continues to flood the Kherson region.Flooding will continue through the night and reach its peak tomorrow morning, according Ukraine's state-owned energy company Ukrhydroenergo.
Russian armed forces"continue to shell" affected settlements and"civilians attempting to evacuate", said Andriy Kostin. He added:"At the same time, the bursting of the dam will have no effect on Ukraine's ability to recapture its own territory." "Attacks against civilians and critical civilian infrastructure must stop. We must act to ensure accountability and respect for international humanitarian law," Mr Guterres told reporters.
The gas pipeline was attacked in September 2022 in what Western officials called a"dangerous act of sabotage".
