Kakhovka Dam Explosion: The total estimated losses have been revealed.

The losses resulting from the destruction of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant (HPP) are estimated to be around $14 billion. This was stated by the Minister of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine, Svitlana Hrynchuk, in an interview with the "Rada" television channel.

"The amount of damage caused by the destruction of the Kakhovka dam and the loss of water resources is approximately $14 billion," she noted.

Hrynchuk emphasized that the volume of lost water resources is comparable to half of the reserves of certain African countries.

This has dealt a significant blow to Ukraine, making the issue of water supply in the affected regions extremely urgent.
