Background: On 14 February, Ukraine’s Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said that Russians are trying to deprive Ukrainians of drinking water from the Dnipro River.
"After the partial destruction and deliberate opening of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant’s gates by the Russians, we lose thousands of cubic metres of water every day. As a result, 70% of the settlements that receive water from the Dnipro may be left without access to drinking water," he said.
