The benefit near the flood will be in weeks to months.
That is if Ukrainian forces were concentrated elsewhere based on a plan to burst the dam.
If they win on other fronts they can turn attention south by that time Crimea will have not had fresh water for months and the forces will be depleted and demoralised.
This could be a major factor in the new offensive. But will require careful planning (if that didn't happen already).
- Scarblac 3y agoThere is a bridge to Crimea, they will bring in water like they used to do when it was cut after 2014 (even when there was no bridge yet). They made huge reservoirs in Crimea. The canal is mostly for water used by agriculture, and it will be a problem in years to come, not this year. And definitely not for troops. The canal is a tiny detail.
- psychphysic 3y agoOh that bridge Ukraine has previously blown up? To be honest, I see the resolution more to do with securing better grain deal security.
