France is sending immediate aid to Ukraine after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam, which caused flooding, forcing people to spend the night on roofs and trees, and cut off drinking water and irrigation for tens of thousands of people in the Russian-controlled Kherson region.
Following a phone call with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, French President Emmanuel Macron said he was sending “aid to meet immediate needs”, calling the destruction of the damn an “atrocious act, which is endangering populations”.
