War has killed over 120,000 Black Sea dolphins, say researchers

Russia's war in Ukraine is devastating Black Sea marine life, with more than 120,000 dolphins killed alongside wider ecological damage. Ivan Rusev, head researcher at Ukraine's Tuzly Lagoons national park, says hostilities are killing hundreds of times more bottlenose and short-beaked dolphins and harbour porpoises than fishing and poaching did before the 2022 invasion.
