Ukraine and Russia continue to trade accusations a day after the explosion at the Kakhovka dam as thousands of citizens were told to evacuate their settlements as water overflowed the dam and turned roads into “rivers”.
Satellite images from Ukraine, provided by Maxar Technologies, revealed the extent of the destruction at the dam.

The water level recedes
At the same time water levels in the town of Nova Kahovka have started to drop after the nearby dam was destroyed, the Russian-installed town administration said via the Telegram messaging app.
“The water level in the flooded streets of Nova Kahovka has started to recede,” said the administration of the now Moscow-controlled city in occupied Ukraine.
Despite the fact that the waters have started receding 24 hours after the collapse of the dam, the damage caused by the floods in the area is significant and it is expected to take time to restore them.
