The russian army has blown up the Kakhovka HPP dam

On June 06 at night, Russian forces blew up the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant across the Dnipro River, causing massive flooding in the nearby areas.

About 80 villages and settlements have already suffered! About 16,000 people are in the "critical zone" on the Ukrainian-controlled right bank of the river. People are being evacuated for districts upstream of Kherson city and taken to Mykolaiv and other Ukrainian towns, Khmelnytskyi, Odesa, Kropyvnytskyi, and Kyiv.

This is a terrible humanitarian and environmental disaster, the consequences of which are unpredictable... Apart from the fact that many settlements will be flooded and uninhabitable, the Kakhovka Canal, which supplies water to occupied Berdiansk and most of the settlements in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, is at risk of running out of water.

The problem with the irrigation system in Ukraine's south will also add to the humanitarian disaster. It is not only a matter of next year's harvest shortfall but also soil degradation, changes in flora and fauna, etc...

According to our information, about 5,000 refugees from the affected region will soon arrive in Odessa. Together with our partner Gamingtec, we are already purchasing 2,500 food packages to feed 2,500 people from among those evacuated to the city.

These high-quality and large grocery sets are enough to feed a family for a week, take a breather, get used to the new city and adjust to these difficult changes. We are near, share your pain, and do our best to support you in this most challenging moment.
