Drone images of the collapsed Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine and surrounding villages under Russian occupation show hundreds of homes and buildings along the Dnieper River inundated by floodwater.

The hydroelectric dam’s reservoir was breached in the early hours of June 6 and sent millions of liters of water bursting through a gaping hole causing widespread flooding in the Kherson region and prompting tens of thousands of people to flee.
