The Ukrainian government has accused Russia of blowing up the Nova Kakhovka dam on the Dnipro river and called for people living downstream to evacuate. Authorities have suggested that more than 16,000 people will be affected by flooding. Ukraine accused Russian forces of blowing up the dam and hydroelectric power station, while Russian officials blamed Ukrainian military strikes for the collapse. People are expected to be taken by bus to the city and then to travel by train to other Ukrainian cities, including Mykolaiv and Kyiv.
