Collapsing dikes and dams: Are Russian authorities responsible? | DW News

- Опубликовано: 10 апр 2024
- Floods have forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate border parts of southern Russia and Kazakhstan. Melting snow has seen water levels along the Ural River surge, collapsing dikes and dams. A rescue operation is underway, but locals say not enough was done to prevent the flooding.
The expanding flood poses a threat to the capital of the Orenburg region, home to over half a million people. Devastated local residents anticipate support from Moscow.

Maybe Ruzzia should have spent money on infrastructure maintenance instead of a disastrous war on a neighbor.
Вы просто невероятно глупы))))

China is flooding, Dubai is flooding, ice caps are melting so it’s a wider climate crisis
Ha ha ha. Russia spent more money on its infrastructure in the last 10 years than Europe. Just look how they modernized their 30 biggest cities during that time.
When you blow the budget attacking your neighbour rather than maintaining your critical infrastructure. No sympathy here.
wrong!.... who are attacking their neighbour? you are confused

It's the return to the era of the Soviet Union that Putin wanted.
and that what the russian citizens got
Absolutely
They choose instead to invest money in the special military operation

Not just any special military operation, a "very special" military operation
Because it's cheaper to steal a new Russia...
Easy. The original 🇷🇺 that they have at home is falling apart, so its time for 🇷🇺 to steal a "new russia" somewhere else that is still working after they have ruined their first one...

Russian traditional way of dealing with disasters: nominate a comission for "investigation", blame someone, not fix the problem.
Oh, just the same as in the US.
I wonder who started it first the blame game
And yes spot on
In the west it gets blamed on climate change.
Just like America does and blames the previous administration.
@@nedludd7622 Excellent corroboration. Enjoy the surf.
Seems like it is Russian culture to rage against the "administration", but to never blame the leader.
Great leader is omnipotent unfalable godly being. He can't be wrong!
It's never said, but probably meant that way a lot.
"Tzar is good, his mimisters are bad" is centuries-old russian mantra. Though it may look silly beyond any limits, they really believe in it, and Kremlin uses clever PR to redirect anger from the "leader".
Speaking against the Kremlin in Russia doesn't get good attention, if you can believe it. Banned if not worse

If it started snowing in Siberia you would blame them for that too.

Zelensky awards medals to his troops on the frontline even when shells were falling all around him.
Putin could not come out to comfort his people during a massive flood. Gee, I wonder why.
@@nuke_Godjira Yeah, a 15 rubles told you that?
@@1LERS1 More likely their 1/4 liter vodka stipend.
Apparently that's because Putin doesn't like to be seen to be associated with failure. Bit late for that tho tbh
Give credit where credit is due… Putin has sent one of his body doubles down to the “frontline” (aka Rostov on Don) a few times to greet the soldiers.

Dam right.
Still your dams in Holland are as vulnerable as the Kerch Bridge... 😜
Oi they called priests to pray god to stop the flooding. What else could they do.. Rofl.
Apparently, the thieving Russian officials have blamed rodents for this. lol

I wonder who will fall from a window this time.
It was purposely flooded, to reduce the risk of death from accidentally falling out of windows.
Amateur hour in the USSR, they all knew the water would be coming, they all knew you have to maintain dams, and check them for damages every autumn and spring... Rodents, trees etc... the condition of the grass on the dam etc.. All known...this is beyond stupid..
Corruption
It doesn't help that Russia sent all their inspectors to Ukraine to be cannon fodder in meat wave attacks
ruZia is corrupt
More likely the people who did that work are now doing damn work in Ukraine.
In Russia mud is strong.
Get 30 million to build a dam. Pocket half and build something Looking line a dam. Thats russia
The 30 million dirt dam. 😂😂😂
America also.
Of course it's negligence, it's Russia isn't it.
Of course it was preventable...they could have built the dam properly
No they could not. Not capable of building a dam. Not capable of winning the war. Russia will collapse just like the dam
What a joke, it´s in ruzzia
No, they have FAR more important things to invest in.
Every dam operator in the world regularly inspects their earthen dams for rodent damage. Not in russia. Incompetence is the norm..
No casualties have been "reported." One of my primary expectations of this disaster, No true response...
It must feel heartwarming for the citizens seeing so many countries offer their support. ... NOT!
LOOOOL
Yes, it’s very difficult and expensive to help people, trapped inside of a dictatorship, without helping the dictator.
Plus, rescuers responding might be taken to the gulag to exchange for criminals- Putler can rationalize anything
You shouldn't build dams out of mud and sand, maybe hire some beavers.
An interviewer on Moscow street asks a Russian :
- so, how’s life in Russia?
Russian replies: “ well… I can’t complain” 😅
Let's be fair and thoughtful on this matter: living in Russia sucks!!!
No, putin said " everybody's jealous of ruzzia"
Why? Lived in Munchen and in Moscow, the latter ia by far a better place in terms of quality of life.
Moscow is the capital, ofcourse it has to be the emblem city, if even the capital sucks then you have failed 100%
This flood will make it easier for russia to install plumbing to these rural communities that have never had plumbing
@@_.F0X._ Moscow is approx 15% of the whole population, not just an emblem
Karma
Usually the military is deployed to disaster areas. Where's the military in all this?
Karma is real wew,,
Putin sent 1 potato for each person
Potato peel*
they wash it down with vodka its fine
So beautiful!
Noooooo, a dam breaking is never beautiful. I´m relieved Russia is experiencing some of the incredible stress it inflicts on us, and the suffering it inflicts on Ukraine. But it should be the oligarchs who are causing this, they should have problems, not children and old people somewhere in Siberia. And Kazakhstan.
@@martavdz4972 this broken dams are really beautiful
Karma that is !!!!
It's the Dam(n).
@@user-vx5vo3gs2w that was not repaired becaue money and manpower is used in Ukraine

We have heaps of Dkyes in Australia, I work with about 10, they can borrow them.
It is a flood special operation
Why is not there army for help? oh yeah they are busy.... 😵
The City of Orc-sk?
Sauron is cringing over this disaster.
Several pieces of the dam were seen swimming towards Ukraine..
I'm looking forward to the report from the monitoring of the situation.
The water lever went up, went up some more, and then it came back down again.
"no one leaves. We cut the phone lines. Contain the spread of misinformation."
His incompetence is starting to come to light.
thank you God, from Ukraine
That's no floods, that's special watering operation.
The dam failed because the corrupt contractor stole most of the money and built the dam by piling dirt on top of shrubs and trees he'd cut down. Failure was inevitable. This is the price of corruption.This is not an exception, it is a symptom of a failed society resulting from a criminal culture.
Russia Fails
HATER
It has never done anything but fail in every single aspect of life through its entire existence.
Dream on.
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Russia is folding like a cheap suit.
Was it Chinese cement ????
Cement? It was made of dirt, just a big log pile of dirt called dam 🦫
and the funniest part is that I'm not joking
Cement... lol... this is Ruzzia...
And this after no heat all winter.
This is horrible for the people. Regular hard working people losing everything
Blame it on🇺🇦&🇺🇸
Imagine the looting and plundering that will start (if it hasn't already) as soon as the water begins to recede...

'massive operations ' ? 😒
Aging infrastructure neglected is the cause and with most of the budget going for war this is will continue sadly.
The dam that failed was only 10 years old. A 33 million dollar dirt dam. The Russian state media interviewed the General Contractor of the dam.
He blamed rodents for chewing through the dam. 😂😂😂😂 So funny
Maintenance and upkeep funds probably got pocketed
Kama is real!
Russia terrorist attack: Pooti police failed the Russian people
Russian Damn collapse: Pootin government failing the Russian people again...
Don’t forget, 430k men at the front dead or badly injured, also because of negligence.
Yeah.. yet somehow the dear leader is never responsible for anything... it's the magic of their system...
Those men complaining will make good fodder at the front line in Ukraine.
I love your concerned faces as if you’re not jumping with delight seeing floods in Russia
3 hour special water operation
We are going to need to talk about this woman at 8:11 carrying an enormous wildcat lookin' feline by the scruff of the neck with a bag over its head. What breed is this? Is he safe from flooding? So many questions.
Hint, the German Wehrmacht named a few tanks after this species
Damn rodents who ate the dam and caused this ! (Official explanation by the local authorities)
So they admitted it was themselves? 😊
I saw that interview. 😂😂😂 The general contractor literally blamed rodents for chewing through the dam. 😂😂😂
They knew the dam was going to fail. Instead of getting construction people to repair the dam. Russians had the local Priests pray for the dam. 😂😂😂
You get what u wish onto others
Handling it like its navy
Why do I get the feeling someone “responsible” is going to fall out of high window for this😂😂
They are now fighting with the real fighter. An fight able one.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
The floods could reach Moscow in under 8 weeks.
Restoring highly productive Land Rich in essentials.( Ukraine Sovereign Country since the end of the cold war.) Is on Putin Agenda not the infrastructure of lowlands in Siberia. Sorry, for these evidently poor people just trying to have a life. In, such places. I doubt any Oligarchs are among the Population!
They’re driving with their boats trough this mess - probably looting (obviously a Russian tradition)…
Where did the russian money and the engineers to maintain the infrastructure go?
Lurssen in Germany most probably.

I hope those people are ok :(
