Shame on you Putin

Agreed! But he doesn’t give a £hit about his people. Wake up Russians!

That's a special water operation

[@Amradar123]

Where did all the russian engineers and money to maintain the dams go?

[@humbertomonteiro6742]

So sorry for the pets and wildlife

[@TalibanAtrocities]

The flood at the ural was caused by melting ice but the floods in Kazakhstan were caused by Russia opening a second damn to redirect water into Kazakhstan

[@Dqtube]

But the river ( Esil / Ishim ) in this city flows from south to north. So this water will only arrive in Wonderland in a few days.

[@fodor7069]

Didn’t know that. Thanks.

[@goyakat2211]

I thing the military engineering and boats are bussy with other tasks.... and the money for the dam's maintenance is being used for other not so constructive activities.

[@scottprather5645]

Yeah but it's not their fault that Putin started the war against Ukraine

[@PluvioZA]

I feel so bad for Kazakhstan, they really don't deserve this suffering. :(

[@oneshothunter9877]

Putin said years ago climate change/warming would benefit Russia.

[@JohnWerner-te5zy]

Except when it causes catastrophic snow melting, hey.

[@IcerinAlaska49]

Not sure how that mess will benefit anyone. But it's more about the half assed, not well built damns than itnis global warming. And Putin won't be doing anything to get these people any help. He is spending all the money in Russia murdering civilians in Ukraine to be bothered with it.

[@jeffsiegwart]

Russian media coverage: "The Ukrainians did it! They made the weather bad!" LOL

[@meow2u22]

Don't give russki state media any ideas.

[@tobylynch]

There was a program and in it was the affects that the second World war had on climate change. So you could be right in a way.

[@serviustullus7204]

Did it ever occur to Russians that these floods on God’s condemnation of Putin’s regime and his actions in the Ukraine and Crimea?

[@telebubba5527]

Do you really think that Putin or Kyrill believe in a God? They are FSB/KGB people and only use religion to aid themselves because others are so stupid to believe in it. They are willing sheep for the slaughter (meat grinder).

[@Qwairy]

Maybe if god existed it would mean something, but it's just blatant mismanagement

They should have reinforced the dam, A they didn’t have the money and B they didn’t know how to.

[@johansvarvare4450]

Guess there won't be any oil or gas delivered to Ruzzia from Kazakstan territory, they're a bit busy being flooded atm.

[@Serendip98]

Pets, I can understand...

[@CharlesSondergaard]

So where are the dams to control floods,

[@sharonlavery7656]

They broke......

[@shakkabubba]

The dams were Russian made and that’s the problem. Corruption and unwillingness to maintain infrastructure caused this. The main dam that collapsed was on about 25 years old, but wasn’t maintained. The Russias will pick out some people to blame, but that’s all.

[@marksolarz3756]

A map would help. Snow melt and run off.....can be overwhelming. Its usually more then a dam....but a series of dams and levee's. "When the Levee Breaks" Led Zeppelin. A dam can only release so much before over flow occurs. And often...it ain't enough....so spill ways on either side keeps the dam intact.... Hopefully. Usually over in a few days....but rain and more run off. It can be weeks. America used to be similar. Army Corp of Engineers... build's levees and Dams. After the flood...along with civilians. They usually have the heavy earth movers. Front end loaders. Scoop buckets...and as many dump trucks as they can. But only....after it recedes. They don't float. Duck boats...and canoes...and Helicopters. Help alot.

[@lhoffbauer]

This is an opportunity for everyone to help It is in giving that we receive

[@surendramumgai631]

Reminds one of hurricane katrina...but that was a hundred times worse disaster...

[@jorr1334]

Much sympathy for the pets.

[@ekaner117]

I have noticed that, when a country goes to war, the infrastructure crumbles. When dealing with infrastructure, the military wont necessarily crumble but will decrease. It's a sad fact that in a person's mind having a better military takes precedent over the quality of people's lives.... This is where we are at right now globally. Not to mention the amount of plastic pollution on this planet
