Dam collapse/ UN: Thousands at risk in southern Ukraine

The destruction of the dam in Nova Kakhovka, in the Russian-occupied Kherson region, will have "severe and far-reaching consequences", the UN humanitarian aid official said.

Martin Griffiths warned of an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council as the consequences of the disaster will become clear in the coming days.

He told the body that thousands of people in southern Ukraine are facing "the loss of homes, food, safe water and livelihoods" on both sides of the front line, the BBC writes. 

"The damage caused by the destruction of the dam means that life will become extremely difficult for those suffering from the conflict," said the UN official./ CNA.al
