Zelenskiy aide says Nova Kakhovka dam blast is 'ecocide'

Russia's destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam in southern Ukraine represents an "ecocide", but national and regional officials are working to ensure the safety of local residents, the head of Ukraine's presidential administration said on Tuesday.

Andriy Yermak wrote on Telegram that Russia's actions also present a threat to the nearby Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, without elaborating.
