This kind of stuff happens in places where artillery has been used abundantly.

“We live in a water desert.”

Well, yes, that’s what a desert is. Is some editor thinking, “This is like a food desert, except with water!” ... which reminds me of the T-Shirt I found in St Louis, “I’m like a chocoholic, except with beer.”

So if YouCrayne takes it back the “Water Shortage will magically disappear”?
LOL.

Collapse will only be for civilians - the Russian occupiers have plenty of water.

No profit motive for Russian oligarchs and out of control corruption, so it's simply not done.

Its why Russian infrastructure across the country is in decrepit state.

I mean only SAINT Zelensky can bring the water back. After all, he can just wave his hands
and make water flow.

Everything Russia tries to control eventually falls apart.
Just look at Russia itself — crumbling infrastructure, leaking heat pipes, and hospitals barely holding together.
Wherever the Kremlin lays its hands, things decay.
They’re repeating the same mistakes the Soviets made, without learning a thing from history.

Well it’s not going as planned. If Saint Z wants his land back he needs to get off his lazy azz
and take it back. No one is keeping him from going on the offensive.

No, not magically, but slowly. However, I don't expect Ukraine to take back any territory.

Why wait? He has the opportunity to show what a great Military leader he
is by taking ALL his land back instead of waiting for Trump to do it for him.
