Putin Attacked The Biggest Ukrainian Dam! | Ukraine War Update

Video Summary

A serious attack on Ukrainian electrical infrastructure by Russia has caused significant damage and destruction. Yesterday, Russia fired over 150 flying objects, including drones and missiles, against Ukrainian targets, resulting in a large scale blackout in the second-largest city in Ukraine, Kharkiv. The attack targeted critical infrastructure, including a hydroelectric power plant, which could have caused a humanitarian catastrophe. The destruction of this plant would have flooded nearby cities, killing tens of thousands of civilians. This is not a new tactic for Russia, as the Soviets did the same during World War II, destroying cities and civilian infrastructure.

Ukraine is now developing new weapon systems, including locally-made cruise missiles, anti-ship missiles, and air defense systems. However, the most effective Russian weapon system in Ukraine is the GLONASS-guided bomb, which is cheap and can be produced in mass quantities. This bomb can cause massive destruction, making it difficult for Ukraine to counter.

To counter the growing threat of Russian GLONASS-guided bombs, Ukraine has several options, including increased mobility, fortification, and camouflage. Ukraine can also acquire more air defense systems with enough range to shoot down Russian bombers before they launch the bombs. Using F-16 jets could also keep Russian bombers further away, and deploying decoys to absorb the GLONASS-guided bombs could be an effective tactic.
