A major dam near a nuclear power plant suddenly collapsed overnight in southern Ukraine, creating the likelihood of widespread flooding and posing an additional risk to an already troubled nuclear plant.
The latest development comes amid growing signs that Ukraine is about to — or already has — launched a long-awaited military offensive against the Russian forces.
Video on social media shows a big chunk missing from the Kakhovka dam, on the Dnipro River in southern Ukraine, allowing water to surge through the opening.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy blamed "Russia terrorists" and called an emergency meeting of his security advisors.
