Water issues in Ukraine have been a focal point throughout 2024, accentuated by significant pollution events and disruptions in water supply. Key rivers such as the Desna and Seim have suffered extensive organic pollution due to external sources, impacting the water quality severely in cities like Chernihiv and posing potential threats to the capital, Kyiv. Analytical data indicates both a decline in water quality and a non-critical decrease in oxygen levels, necessitating readiness for potential emergencies. Added to this, the unilateral actions in occupied territories, including Crimea and Donetsk, exacerbate the scarcity of clean drinking water. The situation is grim in Mariupol, where residents have extremely limited access to water amid ongoing conflicts. Furthermore, strategic infrastructures like the Kakhovka HPP have been targeted leading to additional regional water crises. The unfolding scenario demands sustained attention and rapid response measures to ensure water safety and security in affected Ukrainian regions.
