"Ideal targets": Putin considers dams and nuclear nuclear goals for war - Bloomberg

The author of the article is convinced that there is no point in reminding Putin of international conventions because he is squeezed. Putin does not care about the actions of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the peaceful population. Russian President Vladimir Putin does not recognize the rules of war. It is ready for terrorist attacks on dams and nuclear power plants. This was stated by writer Andres Kluth in his article for Bloomberg.

According to him, the Armed Forces have already started their counter -offensive. In this regard, the Russians decided to blow the dam of Kakhovka hydroelectric power station. He noted that the floods flooded several villages and possibly the city. The attack can even be at risk of cooling of the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant, located above the river. Kluth stated that different sides during the wars were resorted to blasting the dams.

For example, in 1938, Chinese nationalists who fought the Japanese invaders undermined the dams that held back Juanhe. Hundreds of thousands of civilians died or drowned, or losing drinking water and roof. The breakthrough slowed the progress of the Japanese, but did not stop it. The writer recalled that the first international treaties on dam attacks were additional protocols to the Geneva Conventions, approved in 1977.

They assume that "dams, dams and nuclear power plants" should not become objects for attack, even if used for military purposes. Especially if their destruction or damage can lead to the death of the civilian population. Kluth wrote that Putin also threatened to arrange a "second Chernobyl" with a Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant. In his opinion, he can dare to it. It should be reminded that Ukraine provided information about the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station in the Hague.

Ukraine is ready to cooperate with the ISS and provide all the necessary evidence that prosecutors are collected to hold all the perpetrators responsible for the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station. In addition, Pushilin stated that Ukraine allegedly undermined the Kakhovsk hydroelectric power station because of the fear of the offensive of the Russian Federation.
