Take it out on civilians when the war is unfavorable? The recent actions of the Ukrainian army are so shocking!

In order to reverse the unfavorable situation on the battlefield, civilian reservoirs and dams in Russia were bombed for two consecutive days, causing floods to flood and seriously threatening the lives of thousands of residents.

In the face of this provocative behavior that broke through the humanitarian bottom line, Russia quickly took precise counterattack measures, and Putin even showed a unique strategic weapon in the world, which unexpectedly completely changed the pattern of the battlefield.

On October 25, the governor of the Russian state of Belgorod Gladkov officially informed that the Ukrainian military launched an attack that caused damage to the local reservoir dam, putting a thousand residents at risk of flooding, and local emergency mobilization forces organized the transfer of the masses to temporary resettlement points.

The army was still silent, on the evening of October 26, the Avia website revealed that the Ukrainian army once again used the US-provided "Himas" long-range rocket guns to bomb the dam.

The successive strike severely damaged the dam, the water level of the reservoir dropped by more than 1 meter, and three villages such as Donetsk are about to be flooded.

On the same day, the Ukrainian army had six drones to attack Moscow, all intercepted by Russian air defense systems.

Such a two-line operation of attacks on civilian facilities and assaults on the other¡¯s capital is essentially a crazy reaction to the defeat on the battlefield.

The First Additional Protocol to the Geneva Convention of 1977 clearly stipulates that attacks on civilians and civilian facilities are strictly prohibited, and the actions of the Ukrainian military have been openly contrary to international law, and are to be condemned globally.

Moreover, the Ukrainian military's actions clearly violated the relevant regulations should not be.

The key reason for the Ukrainian army's desperate efforts is that the battlefield situation has almost collapsed. Russian Chief of General Staff Gerasimov reported that the Russian "Central" cluster surrounded 31 battalion-level combat units of the Ukrainian army in the Red Army City area, and the "Western" cluster surrounded 5500 Ukrainian troops in Kupyansk, the strategic location of Volchansk. More than 70% of the area is controlled by the Russian army.

Moreover, in such a situation, the Ukrainian army was still taking risks. The battlefield situation was really grim.

In terms of national power, Ukraine¡¯s war potential is almost exhausted.

Data from the World Bank shows that Ukraine's permanent population before the war was 44.2986 million, but now its population is less than 22 million. Among them, 8.2 million refugees remain overseas, leaving only about 3.2 million domestic soldiers that can be used for recruitment.

By contrast, Russia has recruited 400,000 contract soldiers and volunteers in the first three quarters of this year, with a total number of ground forces exceeding 1 million, and the size of the force, weapons and logistics supplies as a whole are relatively sufficient.

After being in a situation with no chance of winning on the conventional battlefield, the Ukrainian army actually chose to attack civilian facilities in an attempt to force Russia to make concessions based on the safety of civilians. Moreover, this move completely intensified conflicts.

Faced with provocations, Russia responded quickly and accurately. On October 26, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that the Russian military had mobilized tactical aviation, drones and missile units to accurately strike 147 military targets including Ukrainian energy facilities and drone production workshops, and directly cut off their supply lines.

Moreover, if the operational objectives were achieved so effectively, the action could simply fall.

What is even more conspicuous is that Putin announced that day that the key test of the nuclear-powered "Haiyan" cruise missile had been completed. This weapon is unique in the world.

According to Glasymov, the missile carried out a flight test of 14,000 kilometers, stayed in the air for 15 hours, successfully verified its anti-missile dissuasion capability, and has not yet reached the range limit.

It has a million-ton TNT equivalent (as much as 70 Hiroshima atomic bombs), coupled with its ability to fly infinitely long distances and its ability to circle the earth at ultra-low altitudes, making it impossible for opponents to guard against it.

During the same period, Russia carried out practical combat training of the "Trinity" strategic nuclear forces, Putin made it clear that Russia's "nuclear shield" reliability is extremely high, and the nuclear power is at the top level in the world.

The adventurous actions of the Ukrainian side will only aggravate the tension.Now the Russian military has fully controlled the initiative of the battlefield, both in the arrangement of the troops, the excellent level of equipment, or in the strategic weapons, has absolute advantage.

It is obviously unrealistic to turn the tide of the war by blowing up the dam. Not only will it be ineffective, it will also lead to a stronger counterattack. In the end, it will be the Ukrainian civilians who will suffer.

The Charter of the United Nations has already clearly stated that all countries can resolve the dispute by peaceful means, not violating the territorial integrity of other countries and the security of the people of Ukraine at the moment, the most appropriate thing is to stop all provocations, to abandon the fantasy of reversing the war with external forces, instead to return to the negotiating table to communicate with Russia, this is the only way to avoid more people from the country!
