A video shared online shows a house being washed down the Dnipro River.
An expert told Insider the dam explosion is a "disaster" and will cause catastrophic flooding.
The video, which was first published on Telegram and has since been verified by the BBC, shows the red roof of the large house as it is flushed down the Dnipro River.
The house in the video was later identified by BBC reporter Adam Robinson, who shared aerial pictures of it from June 2020.
Dr. Stephen Hall, a politics lecturer at the University of Bath, told Insider that the explosion is a "humanitarian disaster" that will have several implications in the weeks to come.
