    I mean it is hard to imagine Ukraine would destroy the dam, but rather than just two sides pointing fingers, having a proof makes me feels better.

      Yeah why would the country with a history of terrorists attacks and cutting off water to crimea do a terrorists attack to cut off water to crimea, i mean seriously why in the world would the side that is loosing blow up a dam flooding a region where fighting was happening delaying said fighting, it just doesnt make any sense why would ukraine ever blow it up, completely illogical.

        I don’t know why people would expect the Russian military to not be behind the attack on the dam when they have a long history of targetting civilian infrastructure.

        The Ukrainian military doesn’t have a history of false flag operations, so it wouldn’t make sense for them to be behind an attack on a dam that wouldn’t benefit them.

            Ukraine was practicing to blow up the dam and even hit a valve before.

            Do you have any neutral sources on this like telegram sources? The only sources I can find are far right RT spam.

            Ukraine used water as a weapon with Crimea and blew up the Kerch bridge which justified Russia’s attacks on civilian infrastructure.

            I’m not surprised that Ukraine blew up bridges, since blowing up bridges is very much in line with NATO-esque doctrine. It makes sense they’d do that after their military “decommunization” training with foreign militaries.
