Volodymyr Zelenskiy has visited the flood-hit southern Kherson region to evaluate the damage from the breach of the Kakhovka dam as he severely criticised the UN and the Red Cross, who he said were not helping the relief effort.
The Ukraine president’s visit came as Russian-installed officials in occupied territory said five people had died in the town of Nova Kakhovka near the dam, and the exiled mayor of the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, Yevhen Ryshchuk, said three people had drowned in the Kherson region.
