And it’s exactly what happened
Why would they destroy the bridge before the Russians flee across it, would be stupid to isolate them and give them no option other than fight to the death

age old tactic of flooding areas whilst retreating, Germans flooded areas on D Day, Dutch have a long history of breaking their dikes to hinder invaders

Hopefully not his penultimate one though. He's got some big toys he could throw out of the pram.

Probably buying all their oil on the cheap is a biggest inducement.

The number one rule book for the russian army in combat. Don't show your own soldiers the slightest regard.

Some of it is historical. India has a real hatred of Pakistan. Russia is one of the very few countries that actively supported India in the 1971 war with Pakistan. theyve dealt arms since and strengthened ties through trade.

Odd, the Dutch have always struck me as being receptive to the LGB thing.

Russia are absolute scum.
Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said two police officers working in the area had been injured.
About 1,000 people were evacuated and "24 settlements" had been flooded by the dam waters, Klymenko told Ukrainian television.
He also issued a warning about the dangers posed by mines being exposed by the rising water levels.

Because it’s also the most significant supply route for Russian forces in the South and Crimea.
It makes everything easier for Ukraine if you stop the supply. Easier to fight now and prevents the Russians relocating the substantial forces they have there to Donbas.
Ultimately Ukraine has to fight those troops somewhere. Preference would be them penned into Crimea with their backs against the sea and limited/no supply because they’ve destroyed the bridge

BBC take a lot of shit but still most reliable news organisation in the world, in my view. They are careful in not publishing unverified claims.

In such a war and after such an outrage it would be the logical thing to do.

The nuclear plants will be next. if they cannot take over the country, or at least a sizeable chunk, they will try and lave it in ruins, like a European Syria. How countries can stay silent about this or give tacit approval is mind boggling. Still in the end you get what you sow, and a whirlwind is heading towards Russia.
