In the village of Maryanskoye in the Dnipropetrovsk region, there was a mass death of fish due to a drop in the water level.
Due to the undermining of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station, the fishing industry suffers losses of 10.5 billion hryvnias, the press service of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food reports.
The death of fish, both young and adults, is already recorded. Once the spawning period is over and as a result of falling water levels, the eggs will dry out in bold areas.
In addition, the fauna of the reservoir carried with the flow of water into the floodplains formed below the dam of the Kakhovskaya HPP will also die. Since in the future, when the “flood” wave decreases, these bioresources will be on land.
Another problem will be the ingress and death of freshwater fish and other biological resources in the salt water of the Black Sea. In turn, the Black Sea fauna can also die from a massive influx of fresh water.
