The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine, with support from the European Union, has provided water trucks and water treatment facilities to five communities in the Kherson region and three communities in the Dnipro region. These communities face persistent water crisis as a result of the Kakhovka dam disaster and ongoing attacks on critical infrastructure.
The UNDP in Ukraine has supplied frontline communities in the Kherson region, including Beryslav, Mylivka, Tyahyn, Novooleksandrivka, and Novoraysk, with a water truck and a water treatment station.
In the Dnipro region, two water trucks and three treatment stations were allocated to Marhanets, while Nikopol received two water trucks. Additionally, the Chervonohryhorivska community in the Dnipro region was supplied with one water truck and two treatment stations.
Overall, UNDP has provided 10 water filtration stations and 10 water trucks, securing access to safe drinking water for over 95,000 residents in these communities.
Each mobile filtering station consists of two modules and can filter over 5,000 litres of water per hour, with the capacity to purify even seawater. Equipped with solar panels, these stations can operate continuously, even during power outages.
In April 2024, with funding from the European Union, UNDP delivered 15 water trucks and 30 water filtering stations to 14 communities in the Dnipro region.
