where fields haven't been flooded next to the dnipro river, but it sits next to the kakhovka dam reservoir, which when you drive past it is like a sea. it's enormous. it's around 30 kilometres wide. hundreds of thousands of households rely on it for water. you have these zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, europ's biggest, further upstream, which relies on the water there for its cooling system. so it is notjust about if someone's house is flooded, it is about long—term water supply. it is also helpful to look at it through a military lens, in that a river is a very useful natural line of defence. and i think that is what the game that is being played here. but it's a serious game. you know, russia has continued to spread its false claims about its invasion, the false justification. but it's right to say that both sides to blame each other. but people here are bright eyed about the military dynamic that is going on and they are in no doubt personally as to who is responsible. we will hear from that resident in a few moments. president zelensky angrily denouncing... translation: every person that dies there is an indictment _ of the existing international structure and international organisations that have forgotten to save lives. if an organisation is not in this disaster area now, then they don't exist. they're incapable of functioning. we've made all the relevant appeals.
