The Kakhovka reservoir continues to empty, according to the Ukrainian energy company Ukrhydroenergo, which measured the reservoir’s water level in the Nikopol district at 9.35 meters (roughly 31 feet) at 8 a.m. on Sunday, June 11 — a one-meter (3.3-foot) drop in just the past day, and more than seven meters (23 feet) lower than at the moment when the Kakhovka collapsed.

The water level of the Dnipro River in and around the city of Kherson, meanwhile, is currently 4.18 meters (13.7 feet) — more than half a meter lower than 24 hours earlier.
