Russians blew the dam.
Russians were in control of it and it's been known since October that the Russians had rigged it with explosives. https://www.newcivilengineer.com/latest/potential-for-catastrophic-results-if-russia-blows-up-ukrainian-dam-31-10-2022/

And as for the pipeline Russia did that as well. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65461401

Let's keep in mind this was the same dam that the UA was threatening to blow up that caused Russia to withdraw in the first place.

Isn't it convenient that Russia keeps blowing up things after Ukraine/NATO/US threatens to blow them up? All things that tend to negatively impact them too and aid the US. That crazy Putin!

If Ukraine blew the dam up then it's pretty embarrassing for Russia that somehow the Ukes were able to sneak in and rig a massive, over-engineered Soviet era dam with the huge amount of explosives needed, right under the noses of all of the Russian troops who were occupying the dam.

I don’t think you need to worry about Z being successful. 😂

If the Z's are to be believed they've already destroyed 250% of the delivered HIMARS and Patriot batteries. The counteroffensive has been stopped. Victory is at hand. Bahkmut is not Stalingrad. putin is tall and smart.

Um. So if every HIMARS and Patriot battery was destroyed, that would be 100%. 100% is the same as saying "all of them."

Not to imply you're lying or exaggerating. Of course not. Nope. Not saying that at all.

I'm not saying anything. I'm just repeating what the russian Government claims. russia claims to have destroyed 250% of the delivered HIMARS and Patriots. Kind of makes one question the whole premise of the Russian School of Math.

They are. There are huge individual contributions coming in to support the war effort.

The wealthy "Ukrainians" there are saving their money, so they can buy up what's left of the country on the cheap after the war.

I'm counting Beef Stroganoff, Pelmeni, Syrniki, Pirozhki, Blini, Shashlik... I know I know, you're gonna say it's "not Russian", but that's like saying tandoori isn't mainstream English food.. the fact is that without tandoori, I probably would've starved in London..

Stroganoff yes, but inspired by other cuisines. Pelmeni came from Siberian people. Syrniki has Ukrainian etymology rather than Russian творог. And certainly Russia can't lay unique claim to pancakes. A lot is borrowed/appropriated from other people and cultures.

Appropriated! No credibility for you

Debating the cultural value of a country, any country, is detrimental to freedom. As soon as you decide which countries are "worthy" you imply which countries are less worthy of their territorial integrity. This is in part what Putin did in the run-up to the invasion of Ukraine. Doing it back to Russia only legitimizes the idea of judging a country's worthiness for self determination.

I was talking about Russian food for Pete’s sake! Once you start debating whether it’s Russian or “Siberian” and use the term appropriation you lose credibility sorry

Siberian culture is not Slav Culture. Siberian history is not Russian history. Not even all these years after Russia came along colonized them in the 17th century.

Sure, Siberia would have been so much better in its own! And such a realistic scenario too.
It’s all done and the only reason anyone starts talking about things that happened in the 17th century is to stir the pot and fish for something in it.

Sounds just like what European colonizers said about Africa. You're a piece of work.

Africa isn’t doing so great though… just saying

This was Ukraine’s dam before the invasion. And they definitely wanted to keep it intact and operational.

I guess we know that the counter offensive have begun.

Russia didn’t blow up its own pipeline and it didn’t blow up its own dam either.

Most likely, it was scared Russians who blew it to keep Ukraine from using it to cross the Dnipro to retake the rest of Kherson and Crimea.

With the winds blowing east this could turn into another classic russian self-own.

Spicy

Dam busting

Dunno which slav did it but will be a movie

Solovyov: "You should simply be destroyed. You are a universal evil. Hey, NATO, have you noticed how much you're hated? Not only in Russia, where you used to be loved. You thought you united the world against Russia. The world chose us. It despises you. That's why you're hysterical, stupid. Norwegian herring. Who are you even? You're a nobody. You don't make any decisions. You're just a secretary. Why are you talking so much? Just be quiet and listen. Are our missiles flying? This sound may soon reach the ears of stupid European leaders who think they're sheltered. You'll see the fireworks and ask, "what happened?" Ask Stoltenberg, Borrell and other dumb-faced pigs.

Solovyov had his arms defensively crossed during the entire discussion. Mr. Nutella cut in until Solovyov said this very, very ominous statement.

There was an exceptionally vigorous, yelling back-and-forth debate about what to do about the 70 Russians wreaking havoc behind Russian lines in Belgorod, Kursk and Bryansk.
"Today five Russian Regions experienced drone attacks"
"I don't understand why their territorial defense units [..] why can't they be given any firearms? Why?"

[9:06 / 11:20] Displayed a poll showing that 52% of respondents said the course of action to stop the attacks within Russian borders is to "strike the counties delivering weapons to Ukraine."
