Because of the terrorist attack by the Russians on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant, all the water flowing below the Kakhovka dam is unsuitable for fishing, drinking or even bathing. This was announced by the Minister of Health Viktor Liashko.

“When a person bathes in such water, a disease can potentially occur. Wastewater treatment facilities switched to emergency disinfection regimes. Monitoring of water quality in the water supply network has been strengthened so as not to miss an outbreak”,- the minister said.
