Russia Aims to 'Depopulate' Ukraine With Winter Infrastructure Strikes

Original: Diesen Winter will # Russland die # Ukraine entvölkern. Durch noch gezieltere Angriffe auf Wasser-, Strom- und Verkehrsi

Concerns are being raised that Russia plans to intensify strikes on Ukraine's water, electricity and transport infrastructure this winter in an effort to depopulate the country. Commenters warn the resulting hardship could trigger larger waves of refugees towards the European Union, which could in turn spark renewed political disputes within the EU over migration and support for Ukraine.

Why now: Fears of a new Russian campaign against Ukrainian civilian infrastructure as winter approaches, and its potential migration consequences for Europe.
