>Do you really think they have been killing their own people for years Obviously yes. The whole Donbas war was started by FSB Colonel and bunch of irregular troops coming from russia. Russia's post-2014 strategy was to destroy Ukraine from inside, by prolonged conflict. This backfired, and Ukraine united instead of being divided, like before 2014 by russian agents like Medvedchuk or Yanukovych. >destroying their own pipelines and bridges Only relevant destruction of pipelines and bridges before 24.02 was done by retreating FSB led irregular russian troops in 2014. Or are you talking about Ukraine attacking valid military targets as crimean bridge now? https://twitter.com/Flash_news_ua/status/1554869316935471105 https://twitter.com/Flash_news_ua/status/1554869316935471105 >only to use it as an excuse to bomb infrastructure in the Ukraine? They mostly bomb civilian infrastructure and dwellings, not military one because their intelligence and precision missles sucks. >By that logic, I assume Russia will soon drop a nuclear bomb in Sankt Petersburg in order to have an excuse to continue their operation in the Ukraine. They will need to do stuff like this only if they continue to lose, not with nuclear or so. Russia and especially Putin is known for targeting it's own citizen to cause war frenzy - that's how he got elected and caused war, by bombing Moscow. Google "ryazan sugar".
