June 5, 20232 yr 48 minutes ago, Abracadabra said: Putin gave a speech the day the SMO began where he outlined the Russian objectives. There's nothing about taking Kyiv in three days. He said the goals were de-Not-z-fication and demilitarization. Whatever others may say outside the Kremlin is immaterial. I do think the Russians hoped for a short conflict. The speed of the intial invasion suggests they looked for Kyiv to come to the negotiating table fairly quickly. It almost worked. They had an agreement in Istanbul before Boris the clown flew in and ordered Zelensky to withdraw from the talks. At that point, the Russians shifted to a strategy of attrition to accomplish the objectives. The goal was never de-not-zification. The goal was and always has been to bring Ukrainians kicking and screaming back under Russia's thumb, either as a Russian state or as a puppet state of Russia. There was never any agreement in Istanbul that Zelensky would agree to. That's pure fantasy by idiots like you who like to view Russia as some reasonable actor here. They wanted to keep everything they took in 2014 "officially" and move a step closer - with a long term eye on taking Ukraine "back" bite-by-bite. This is why Putler is so fascinated by making a BS case that Ukraine has no independent history - even to the point of being embarrassed when "Ukraine" appeared in text on a 14th century map. He wants erase "Ukraine" as a separate language, culture, and people. Zelensky will not allow it, nor will Ukrainians. Go back to Russia.

June 6, 20232 yr Definitely went "boom". Seems unlikely it was due to mother nature with that video. Doesn't look like shelling either, even though the Russian mayor claims it without any evidence. Of course Russia is saying Ukraine did it. Ignoring the fact that Ukraine doesn't benefit. But Russia can now relocate its defenses from the left bank to the area Ukraine is attacking. Doesn't take a genius. But I'm sure the resident vatnik will be in here parroting Kremlin lies.
June 6, 20232 yr It was the Not-zz who destroyed the dam. They've been threatening this for some time. It's the reason Russia left Kherson.
June 6, 20232 yr They considered it months ago. The conditions now are not the same. Defenders blow dams and bridges to prevent offenses. Ukraine has little reason to blow the damn at this stage while Russia benefits both politically and tactically in the near term. Keep being a stupid vatnik though.
June 6, 20232 yr Sure, Russia attacked their own pipeline, flew drones into their own buildings, bombed their own bridges, blah, blah, blah. Russia wanted to flood their own defenses, endanger Crimea's water supply and threaten a ZPP meltdown. Makes perfect sense only to fools and liars. This shows how utterly desparate the Not-zzz are after the failed offensives. They know they've lost and now it's a scorched earth policy. Brussels, Wahington and London are responsible.
June 6, 20232 yr Quote Ukraine has shelled the Kherson region’s Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant, using a HIMARS multiple rocket launcher system, Russian state-owned news agencies TASS and RIA Novosti report, citing emergency services. "Ukraine’s Armed Forces won’t stop their attempts to destroy the Kakhovka HPP and create the conditions for a humanitarian catastrophe. Today at 10AM, a strike was conducted using six HIMARS missiles. Air defence units shot down five missiles, while the other one hit the lock of the Kakhovka dam, it was damaged,” TASS cites a representative of the emergency services. RIA Novosti clarifies that the hit "did not lead to destruction of crucial parts” of the dam. As of now, there is no information on the casualties, Russia’s news agency Interfax reports. The Ukrainian side has not yet commented on the situation. Novaya Gazeta Been in the works for some time.
June 6, 20232 yr 2 hours ago, Abracadabra said: dude, there's a video of it blowing up. it wasn't destroyed by shelling, it was destroyed by a planted explosion. Ukraine has been warning for weeks that Russia was planning this: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63341251 just stop, it's getting embarrassing.
June 6, 20232 yr Russia controlled the reservoir levels. They recently went from having historically low levels to having historically high levels in a matter of weeks. It hits its peak, then the dam is blown. But sure, keep thinking that it was Ukraine behind this.
June 6, 20232 yr Quote 💬 Defence Minister Sergei #Shoigu: ▪️ Tonight, the #Kiev regime committed another terrorist crime: the #Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Station facilities were blown up, flooding a large area. The purpose of these actions is reportedly as follows. ▪️ Having failed to succeed in the offensive operations, the enemy intends to redeploy the units and hardware from #Kherson direction to its offensive area in order to strengthen its potential, significantly weakening its position in Kherson direction. The enemy has begun building defensive positions on the right bank of the Dnepr River, which indicates the intention to turn to defence there. ▪️ In order to prevent #Russia's offensive actions in this section of the front, the Kiev regime has carried out a sabotage, essentially a terrorist act, which has resulted in the flooding of significant areas and will have serious and long-lasting environmental consequences. ▪️ In addition, the release of water from the Dnieper Hydroelectric Station, according to available data, has been significantly increased, leading to even greater flooding of areas. ▪️ This fact proves that the large-scale diversion was planned in advance by the Kiev regime.

Except, Russia was in control of the dam. So, I guess it proves that it was planned in advance by Moscow. 1 hour ago, JohnSnowsHair said: Russia controlled the reservoir levels.
