The decision took effect at 12 noon, according to pro-Russian mayor Vladimir Leontiev, the water level near Nova Kakhovka, occupied by Russia more than 15 months ago, is currently more than 10 meters.
" The water has risen and continues to rise. The city is flooded, Dnepr boulevard is already under water. This means that the water has risen more than 10 meters," said the Russian mayor.
About 600 homes have already been flooded, emergency services added.
The spokesman for the EU's External Action Service, Peter Stano, described the bombing of the dam in Kherson as a "brutal attack".
During the daily conference of the European Commission, Stano said that the EU condemns this terrible attack on Ukraine, which it considers as a signal for the further escalation of the conflict.
"The European Union strongly condemns this horrific and barbaric attack on such an important piece of infrastructure with dire humanitarian and environmental consequences. It is "a new signal of escalation, taking the horrific and barbaric nature of Russian aggression against Ukraine to unprecedented heights." This is what the spokesperson of the EU External Action Service, Peter Stano, said during the daily conference of the European Commission", said Stano.
