In Ukraine, people traditionally gather to celebrate Ivan Kupala Night in Khortytsya, an important historical area on the Dnieper River.

在乌克兰，人们传统上聚集在第聂伯河上重要的历史地区霍蒂茨亚庆祝伊万·库帕拉之夜。

The dam collapsed on Tuesday, causing thousands of people on both sides of the Dnieper River to flee their homes.

该大坝于周二坍塌，导致第聂伯河两岸数千人逃离家园。

Here is what the AP found: There are six dams along the Dnieper River.

Satellite imagery shows Russian ground forces assembled in Nova Kakhovka in southern Ukraine around a hydroelectric plant on the Dnieper River.

卫星图像显示，俄罗斯地面部队集结在乌克兰南部新卡霍夫卡的第聂伯河上的水电站附近。

The Kakhovka Dam was the last along hundreds of kilometers of the Dnieper River that passed through Ukraine's main industrial and agricultural areas.

卡霍夫卡大坝是流经乌克兰主要工农业区的数百公里长的第聂伯河上的最后一座大坝。

For many years, the Dnieper carried water containing industrial and agricultural chemicals which settled in the soil at the bottom of the reservoir.

多年来，第聂伯河里的水含有工业和农业化学物质，这些化学物质沉淀在水库底部的土壤中。

Large oil slicks can be seen across the river from the city's port and industrial buildings, creating a new pollution problem for the Dnieper.

从该市的港口和工业建筑可以看到河对岸的大量浮油，这给第聂伯河带来了新的污染问题。

Also, Britain's Ministry of Defense said water levels of the Dnieper River and the reservoir behind the dam had been at high levels in recent days.

此外，英国国防部表示，第聂伯河和大坝后面的水库的水位最近一直处于较高水平。

The east became known as " Left Bank" Ukraine; lands to the west of the Dnieper, or " Right Bank, " were ruled by Poland.

东部被称为“左岸” 乌克兰；第聂伯河以西的土地， 或“右岸” ，由波兰统治。

In the 17th century, war between the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Tsardom of Russia brought lands to the east of the Dnieper River under Russian imperial control.

在 17 世纪， 波兰立陶宛联邦与俄罗斯沙皇之间的战争将第聂伯河以东的土地置于俄罗斯帝国的控制之下。

The Institute for the Study of War, a Washington, D.C. policy organization, said Russia has " a greater and clearer interest in flooding the lower Dnieper despite the damage to their own prepared defensive positions."

华盛顿特区的政策机构战争研究所表示，俄罗斯“在淹没第聂伯河下游方面有更大、更明确的兴趣，尽管这会破坏他们自己准备好的防御阵地”。

Ukraine's counter-offensive in the south appeared to be gaining momentum as the Russian occupation authorities in the city of Kherson started to evacuate civilians and move administrative offices across the Dnieper river.

乌克兰在南部的反攻似乎势头正盛，占领赫尔松市的俄罗斯当局开始疏散平民，并将行政办公室迁到第聂伯河对岸。

And then maybe beyond that, the concern is what if they say we're going to push all the way out here to the Dnieper River and say, all of this is for Russia.

除此之外，我们还担心俄罗斯军队会不会一直推进到第聂伯河，然后说这些地区都是俄罗斯的。
