Only two weeks after the Russian bombing of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant, the world has already forgotten the disaster.

Blue/Yellow, a Lithuanian NGO supporting Ukraine’s resistance against Russia’s invasion, reminds the world that the Nova Kakhovka disaster is one of Russia’s many crimes that must not be forgotten.

Blue/Yellow has released a series of thought-provoking images portraying how cities such as London, Lyon, Berlin, and Warsaw would appear if subjected to a similar attack. Haunting visuals reveal iconic landmarks submerged in water and cities reduced to ruins. The visuals were created with the help of artificial intelligence by the creative agency Truth.
