    What’s the point of flooding a region by destroying your “assets” when you could mass bombing like a deaf these villages.
    After all, the west sells the war like an hegemonic move with mass slaughtering traits. Why Russia is not so heavy on using aviation, then?
    US were using tomahawks on Syria for less than that.

    If destruction and high toll number (aka ethnic cleansing) was the goal, they won’t deliver like a grocery shop.

      I forgot a part. The thing is not Ukraine would need more justification but the West.

      This is a proxy war with the help of a formerly comedian, Zelensky.

        At least in the US, most people are not tracking this in anything but generalities. If they even know this dam was breached, they won’t know the significance. It’s also doesn’t have quite the visual impact of row after row of bombed out apartments or bound bodies from a massacre.
