Maxar noted that the images cover over 2,500 square kilometres between Nova Kakhovka and the Dnipro Bay southwest of Kherson, giving an idea of the crisis scale.
"The images show houses and buildings submerged in water, with many having only their roofs showing, and water taking over parks, land and infrastructure," the statement said.
