A major dam and hydro-electric power plant in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine suffered a collapse early Tuesday, prompting mass evacuations and fears for large-scale devastation as Ukraine accused Moscow’s forces of committing an act of “ecocide.”
At this point I honestly struggle to care about “whodunnit”. Southern Ukraine is becoming a desert, western Ukraine is covered in radioactive dust. This was once one of, if not the most developed, prosperous and advanced republics in the USSR. And now? Now the world is ablaze and those who can do something about it don’t want to, because their line goes up. And those who do want something done - cannot do anything. At this point it seems to be too late. If not for the world at large, then for the region at least.
