Description

Ukraine, where the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam has caused widespread devastation and human suffering, leading to severe flooding, displacement of communities and significant infrastructure and environmental damage.

The impact on the region’s water supply, sanitation systems and public health services cannot be underestimated.

WHO has rushed in to support the authorities and health care workers in preventive measures against waterborne diseases and to improve disease surveillance.

Our team is in the field, continuously reviewing health needs to support those affected.

In the coming days, WHO will deliver additional supplies to strengthen access to health services.
