A photograph taken on April 4, 2023 shows pilars and buildings in the rising water of an artificial lake which gradually submerges the village of Yusufeli as it retains the flow of the Coruh river (also referred to as Chorokhi), in Artvin province, in northeastern Turkey. The Yusufeli Dam and its Hydroelectric Power Plant Project in the Eastern Black Sea Region has started to hold water, with the electricity production expected to start in May 2023. With a total water storage volume of approximately 2.2 billion cubic meters, the double curvature concrete arch dam is Turkeys highest with a height of 275 meters. (Photo by Yasin Akgul/AFP Photo)
