Probable that Russia did it for Crimean area denial to prep for a withdrawal.

Makes the most sense to me. As a side bonus it cuts into Ukranian energy production. About the only Ukranian motives I see are flooding Russian annexed territory and trying to deny them maneuver avenues.

One source says this royally screws Crimea for 10-15 years.  

Either Russia is throwing in the towel and sabotaging stuff on the way out or Ukraine just kicked Russian Crimea in the balls big time. If Ukraine did do this the volume knob may get turned to 11.

Apparently this reservoir is also used for the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant and the plant might have to be shut down.

Isn't there a nuke plant near where this happened?

Sucks to be them, sure.

But that doesn’t address the question of whether it is “good”?

It’s bad for the people who live there.

It’s good for the military industrial complex.

Wonder if its used in the reactor cooling process, if so, this could be pretty bad, no?

Both Ukrainians and Russians.

And as we saw with Bakhmut, as soon as it was lost, Z Man went "oh well it's just all rubble anyway".

I'm sure the Ukraine propaganda will be in full mode tomorrow, with the Dwarf King (5'4") demanding billions for rebuilding.

Edit:  Hey wait, weren't their pictures of Ukrainian jets with British cruise missiles just posted the other day on here?   Curious.

Russia did start this pointless war. They are ultimately responsible for every death in this war, and the destruction of this dam should amount to a war crime and a war atrocity.

I thought it was shut down last year? Russia has had that area for well over a year now.

Looks more like someone had placed explosives in the power plant and underwater on the dam and set it off in response to an attack.

Ukranians put nano-thermite in the structure of the dam so they could blame Russia as a false flag.

And the Russians decide to do this because...?

Z Man's grand offensive is like a fart in the wind and hasn't had anything thing to with this area.  So the Russians just decide to blow the dam, because... reasons?

They're still there.  The Western Slavs haven't beaten back the Eastern Slavs despite all the money and advanced weapons, now Z Man's offensive has stalled.

What better thing to get the west's attention than another mass shooting, I mean "crisis", what with Zelensky demanding all our Patriots and the potato in the White House stopping further payments because it's an election year.
