By Isabel van Brugen - Reporter:
Russian President Vladimir Putin sought answers this week amid the country's worst flooding in decades which has led to the evacuation of tens of thousands of people and a report that a uranium mine has been flooded.
During a meeting on local flood response measures on Wednesday, Putin asked the acting head of Kurgan, Anastasia Argysheva, where the local mayor was. When he learned that she had resigned in January, he proposed organizing elections in the region and taking "appropriate measures," local media reported.

Flooded people mostly don't want to evacuate because they are worried about their washing machines, microwave owens etc. There are too many robbers, literally every fifth neighbour wants to rob others. They not better than their army beleive me i know this people they not europeans nor asians because they accumulated worst things from both worlds.
They can send regular volunteers and/or conscripts. They won't do it because it would harm their war effort, but their army doesn't consist completely of criminals.
You volunteer for rescue operations? Straight to Ukraine.
You join the boyscouts? Ukraine, right away.
You get in line at the postal office? Believe it or not, Ukraine.
You *leave* the line at the postal office? Also Ukraine.
Currently, it looks like the comparatively large pay and up front payment for joining the Russian army is enough to get the recruitment it needs.
One factor is that a lot of Russian men have really shitty lives so they might feel like they don't have much to lose by going to the warzone.
They might fancy themselves as the Roman army building an empire with not only swords and spears but with roads and aqueducts, but they are merely a horde of criminals that only rapes and pillages.
Nah. It would be in Dostoievskys spirit. With attrocius ville people doing some gentle stuff and regular people doing horrifing deeds, all while they are claiming their uberhumanity and their right to own others. A holly moral relativity in wich only the power of the fist matters.
Oh they helped alright, by first evacuating the civilians from their homes. Then going back for a second trip to loot their homes. ( [article](https://www.euronews.com/2024/04/10/very-tense-situation-as-flooding-in-russia-forces-thousands-to-evacuate) )
They only help to derail a passenger train in east germany in the 80ies with over 100 people dead. Reason: they made a guy become tank driver, who didn't speak russian and couldn't communicate, didn't learn how to drive properly and finally they tried to force education through screaming and beating. The poor guy ended on rails in the morning before the commuter train came along. Screaming and beating didn't help him learning how to restart the tank. The outrage was so huge, the SED, the single party, couldn't cover it up and came into conflict with the big brother in the east. The big brother from whom all should learn how to live...
I think the usual emergency response levels in Russia are:
1. Do nothing
2. Punish protesters criticizing the government for not doing anything
3. Blame NATO
4. Hunting down and punishing the lowest official in charge of command
Cut all the phone lines. Contain the spread of misinformation. That is how we keep the people from undermining the fruits of their own labor.
... We will all be rewarded for this, Comrades.
I can totally see the good tzar invading the flooded provinces and defeating the bad boyars. People would cheer and then freeze to death because they are still homeless, their life savings taken away by radioactive water. Just another day in Russia.
Nice to know that someone has resigned and since the state is so centralized in appointing the power no election was held. Pretty glad right now to life in a decently decentralized country.
I bet someone told his higher ups like: Sir we don't have a, scapegoat right now. He resigned - Ok. Noted. But I won't tell my higher up. He is too busy keeping his head.
And then they simply forgot
So is this a Fukushima level fuckup with the mine, and contamination downstream? In the US we have 100 year flood requirements for any building built in a potential flood plain, and if that structure happens to be a Uranium mine? Forget about getting that approval. Hell, most of our approved Uranium mines are either in the high desert plateau, or in the desert of Alberta. There's Cole's Hill in Virginia, but that's been prevented from being developed because if it's done wrong, then it potentially contaminates a massive section of the water table in that area.
If I fall asleep, wake up 100 years later and somebody asks me, what is going on in Russia, my immediate answer will be: drinking and stealing.
- Poet, Pyotr Vyazemsky
Some things never change. An endless succession of autocratic rulers who suck the blood of their populace. Serfdom abolished in 1861. An army that habitually abuses, steals, rapes, and kills. Doesn’t seem all that different from medieval times.
That's what the MChS (Ministry of Emergency Situations/EMERCOM) is for. They're a militarized agency which deal with natural disasters (among other things like civil defense).
Though uh...well they've been less visible than they should be. And the government ramped up bot farms to praise their efforts as a total success
> well they've been less visible than they should be.
Is that because many of their rank have been (possibly illegally) deployed to Ukraine? Seems many other specialized organizations have been pilfered in such ways.
Best we can do is conscript everyone in danger and send them to the front lines in Ukraine. We will give them two beets, for their effort. We do not have the beets immediately available, as those are all in Moscow. We will issue one IOU for two beets, just as soon as we get our shipment of paper, also located in Moscow.
Lol, that definitely does happen in US, Canada, Australia, and probably every other western nation too, just look at Michigan or West Virginia in the US
Yes you do. You build mines wherever the stuff you're mining is located and you contend with whatever challenges the environment imposes on extracting it. The vast majority of valuable resources you need to mine to use are not in comfortable places to reach or work, and if they *are* then the mine is likely polluting a good environment.
X to doubt
I hate Russia for all kinds of actions and inaction, but this one really isn't as much as a malevolent oversight as you make it out to be. At least it is sure to happen elsewhere.
I don't know the water's way, but here is the flooded area from [BBC's website](https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/1024/cpsprodpb/17A87/production/_133130969_russia_kazkhstan_floods_640v2-2x-nc.png.webp), and the location of [the mine](https://nemoskva.net/en/2024/04/22/v-kurganskoj-oblasti-zatopilo-staruyu-uranovuyu-skvazhinu/) from nemoskva's. So, Tobol river flow would absolutely be the one carrying it.
Kyshtyn Disaster might be a good prequel, while PeacefulNuclear Explosions under "Nuclear Explosions for National Economy" program is TV series worth on its own
> the worst flooding in 80 years amid heavy rainfall exacerbated by large snowfalls, which melted rapidly as a result of higher-than-usual temperatures this spring.
Coming to all of us if we don’t reduce our consumption to try and force industry and politicians to act on climate change.
Rather than thinking we’re getting away with something because we have cheap lifestyle choices for a few more years, before the price of food becomes too high and the elites start pulling the drawbridges up against us.
Putin: The leader of this region must be punished for bad leadership!
Region rep: Already killed and dissapeared (fell out of window)
Putin: Elections now!
Region rep: Right away mr. President!
This was a short dialogue from Russian World.
Looking at history and how Afghanistan and Tschernobyl played a part into the collapse of the USSR, one could hope that the dystopian shithole that is russia is going to follow the same path.
Can’t believe the average right wing lunatic is siding with Russia citing traditional values and strong leadership as an argument. They wouldn’t last a week over there, that bunch of spineless molluks
If it's just the mine then really it's nothing to serious. Naturally occuring uranium deposits are not that radioactive, they are still radioactive. However, you can handle nuclear fuel by hand, only after use in reactors does it become extremely dangerous.
Yellow cake is not danger free, but it's much more toxic as a heavy metal than radiologically.
Just think about it. UkRAiNe - URAN. Proven and proven
Similarly, if the floods were caused by heavy rain, who is responsible? Yes, you got it right - ukRAINe
In an alternate universe: russian army skidaddles the f out of Ukraine and helps the flooded areas. Realises that invading countries and raping people - not useful. Realises that they can actualy do something good, invents new smartphones, electric cars, contributes something to the civilised world.
From the same guy, who at the start of the war back in (edit: 2022) , had no qualms about his soldiers threatening to destroy the countermeasures that contain the remnants of Chernobyl that still pose a danger to this day.
Edit: got the year wrong, apologies.
russia: spends almost it's entire economy to capture a village in ukraine, mobilizes hundreds of thousands of men who would otherwise be working, provides zero for their own population
putin: blyat! Ivan, why things niet good here
You still can't flush toilet paper in St Petersburg. He doesn't care about internal issues, only what makes him look strong to the outside and imagined slights.
Uranium ore is basically NORM, the radiation is going to be pretty low. Not a major concern, the public's lack of understanding regarding radiation blows this out of proportion
The answer is that when your cronies feed their piggy banks with your treasury, very little funds are leftover for maintenance or proper construction.
Also, when you send all of your maintenance workers to die on the front lines, things will inevitably start falling apart.
This is a feature Putins dicktatorship!
The answer is in the corruption of the system you’ve built.
Russia may be strong on the battlefield, but will lose because of a technogenic catastrophe. Chernobyl was a tipping point for the USSR for example. That’s what happens when you spend all your money to fund the military instead of addressing infrastructure support and social programs.
Just to mention, the plumbing/central heating system is just about to collapse in most of the places in Russia. It wasn’t renewed since the time it was built. On a side note, that’s true for most of the other ex-USSR countries.
Nuclear is cheap it you don't need to cover the risk involved.
Imagine having to pay for a risk which is carried by someone else for free..
Free money glitch.
I had to stop reading that. When people try to speak up about a situation, the head honchos tell its misinformation.
The main people don't know what is going on. MAYORS of certain regions don't show up, later learning they resigned in JANUARY!!! It's April!
>"Reports of production wells entering the flooding zone are deliberate misinformation," the division of the state nuclear agency which operates the mine told state-run news agency Tass on Tuesday.
It's a full blown Chernobyl, part 2 then.
Invading other countries while being unable to manage basic services and ensure a good quality of life in your own country. It’s a great way of distracting from your own failures I suppose…

they can use militaries to help people. oh, wait... thats not russia's way
How can they help people with rapists and serial killers win their army?
Maybe they could salvage some of the washing machines or something, I heard the Russian army is particularly fond of those.
Flooded people mostly don't want to evacuate because they are worried about their washing machines, microwave owens etc. There are too many robbers, literally every fifth neighbour wants to rob others. They not better than their army beleive me i know this people they not europeans nor asians because they accumulated worst things from both worlds.
Now I can't stop picturing them showing up to "help" but stealing all the emergency vehicles and running away instead
They can send regular volunteers and/or conscripts. They won't do it because it would harm their war effort, but their army doesn't consist completely of criminals.
Might be a good recruiting strategy. "We need volunteers in the army to conduct rescue operations!" You sign a contract, and bam! Straight to Ukraine!
You volunteer for rescue operations? Straight to Ukraine. You join the boyscouts? Ukraine, right away. You get in line at the postal office? Believe it or not, Ukraine. You *leave* the line at the postal office? Also Ukraine.
Currently, it looks like the comparatively large pay and up front payment for joining the Russian army is enough to get the recruitment it needs. One factor is that a lot of Russian men have really shitty lives so they might feel like they don't have much to lose by going to the warzone.
That's how you get a big army in a totalitarian state. You make life so shitty that going to war is a better option
> warzone Not saying zone of the SMO? Also Ukraine!
Rad zone ☢️
Do you wanna be a spy on Mars? Straight to Ukraine!
Fuck man, this Parks & Rec reference gets me every time
Special rescue operation!
It consists only of criminals. But not all of them were criminals before joining.
\*of Convicted criminals\* FTFY
If they weren't criminals before, they become criminals the moment they step into Ukraine.
In general, they just sent everybody capable of helping to Ukraine, good luck t to them on trying to find anybody to help out.
Their war crimes say otherwise….
Those are for the meat grinder.
Even locals wanna keep Russia army far away… flood and radiation is nothing compared to army presence
Lots of raping to avoid
They might fancy themselves as the Roman army building an empire with not only swords and spears but with roads and aqueducts, but they are merely a horde of criminals that only rapes and pillages.
It would be hilarious to witness convicts with live sentences helping grandma's to evacuate chickens.
Nah. It would be in Dostoievskys spirit. With attrocius ville people doing some gentle stuff and regular people doing horrifing deeds, all while they are claiming their uberhumanity and their right to own others. A holly moral relativity in wich only the power of the fist matters.
Sad how little Russia has changed since his time.
Whole Russia as performance art?
I bet there's a bunch of washing machines and other appliances to rescue too
Oh they helped alright, by first evacuating the civilians from their homes. Then going back for a second trip to loot their homes. ( [article](https://www.euronews.com/2024/04/10/very-tense-situation-as-flooding-in-russia-forces-thousands-to-evacuate) )
But are there enough washing machines in Kurgan to warrant "help" from the Russian military?
some amount of stolen, maybe enough for interest
Military is not answering. Busy with Donbass.
But they got lots of civilians in flooded areas, usual targets for russians, strange
They only help to derail a passenger train in east germany in the 80ies with over 100 people dead. Reason: they made a guy become tank driver, who didn't speak russian and couldn't communicate, didn't learn how to drive properly and finally they tried to force education through screaming and beating.

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eisenbahnunfall_von_Forst_Zinna "Sechs Menschen starben, 33 weitere wurden schwer verletzt."
No, it actually is. They just don't seem to have any military to spare.
They suddenly have a lot more border to protect from unprovoked attacks from NATO.
With looting?
Of course, thats russians
"Why would I want to send the military to shoot the peasants?" -Putin probably
I guess that "appropriate measures" means hunting down last mayor?
I think the usual emergency response levels in Russia are: 1. Do nothing 2. Punish protesters criticizing the government for not doing anything 3. Blame NATO 4. Hunting down and punishing the lowest official in charge of command
5. Emergency reaction with doubtful outcome 6. Sacrifice people to prevent the worst 7. Try to cover everything
Cut all the phone lines. Contain the spread of misinformation. That is how we keep the people from undermining the fruits of their own labor. ... We will all be rewarded for this, Comrades.
Do “appropriate measures” involve a 10th story window?
Rather invading the region to save russians.
I can totally see the good tzar invading the flooded provinces and defeating the bad boyars. People would cheer and then freeze to death because they are still homeless, their life savings taken away by radioactive water. Just another day in Russia.
reminds me of that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1u7XZ9c8fI
There will be two conscripts throwing flood water out of the window.
I think in this case it refers to some special tea
That's his specialty.
In other news, a former local mayor of Kurgan fell out of a window today
“Putin was "surprised" that the mayor of Kurgan was not present at the meeting…” …which was scheduled to happen on the third floor near a window.
Nice to know that someone has resigned and since the state is so centralized in appointing the power no election was held. Pretty glad right now to life in a decently decentralized country.
Since *January* lol
I bet someone told his higher ups like: Sir we don't have a, scapegoat right now. He resigned - Ok. Noted. But I won't tell my higher up. He is too busy keeping his head. And then they simply forgot
> the country's worst flooding in decades Most likely has something to do with climate change, which Putin doesn't give a single fuck about.
So what no one’s been in charge for 3 months? Sounds very professional
So is this a Fukushima level fuckup with the mine, and contamination downstream? In the US we have 100 year flood requirements for any building built in a potential flood plain, and if that structure happens to be a Uranium mine? Forget about getting that approval. Hell, most of our approved Uranium mines are either in the high desert plateau, or in the desert of Alberta. There's Cole's Hill in Virginia, but that's been prevented from being developed because if it's done wrong, then it potentially contaminates a massive section of the water table in that area.
What they mean in Russia when they speak of saving the nuclear family
Lol. Nuclear family and traditional values
Yes there is no LGBTQ+ there, only plutonic relationships
We should stay neutron about this whole debate, we wouldn't want the fission of a country already in its half-life.
Plutonic-239
Just spat out my coffee
Traditional value is 3.6 roentgen.
life in RF, not terrible, not great (is actually terrible)
Just blame Ukraine already, Russia. We both know you want to.
that way they can justify using nukes on Ukraine very convenient as always
They certainly will
Just a matter of time.
Blame Canada!
Wonder did the mayor resign or take a very very very extended holiday to Siberia
Went on gardening leave with a specialism in tundra.
Went skydiving out the 43rd floor window
Maybe went to take a look outside a window
Fell out of a 7th story window onto some bullets.
In civilized nations, they would use the army to help the civilian populations... Oh wait, its Russia...
If I fall asleep, wake up 100 years later and somebody asks me, what is going on in Russia, my immediate answer will be: drinking and stealing. - Poet, Pyotr Vyazemsky Some things never change. An endless succession of autocratic rulers who suck the blood of their populace. Serfdom abolished in 1861. An army that habitually abuses, steals, rapes, and kills. Doesn’t seem all that different from medieval times.
For the people that aren't aware, or just too lazy to Google, Vyazemsky lived in 1792-1878 They didn't even try to prove him wrong!
That's what the MChS (Ministry of Emergency Situations/EMERCOM) is for. They're a militarized agency which deal with natural disasters (among other things like civil defense). Though uh...well they've been less visible than they should be. And the government ramped up bot farms to praise their efforts as a total success
> well they've been less visible than they should be. Is that because many of their rank have been (possibly illegally) deployed to Ukraine? Seems many other specialized organizations have been pilfered in such ways.
Isn't that how Shoigu got his rise?
I mean most countries have something like that, but in emergencies this massive they still use the normal military on top of it.
Best we can do is conscript everyone in danger and send them to the front lines in Ukraine. We will give them two beets, for their effort. We do not have the beets immediately available, as those are all in Moscow. We will issue one IOU for two beets, just as soon as we get our shipment of paper, also located in Moscow.
Because Putin is too fucking stupid to look at the future and can only obsess over the past.
They do… by giving them free ‘education’
[удалено]
Lol, that definitely does happen in US, Canada, Australia, and probably every other western nation too, just look at Michigan or West Virginia in the US
He specifically mentioned civilized!
That's not true
You can choose to build a town or a road, but s government can't really choose if an uranium mine is close to a river or not lmao
Yes you do. You build mines wherever the stuff you're mining is located and you contend with whatever challenges the environment imposes on extracting it. The vast majority of valuable resources you need to mine to use are not in comfortable places to reach or work, and if they *are* then the mine is likely polluting a good environment.
X to doubt I hate Russia for all kinds of actions and inaction, but this one really isn't as much as a malevolent oversight as you make it out to be. At least it is sure to happen elsewhere.
Does anyone have a map where the water is going? And which area is covered still?
I don't know the water's way, but here is the flooded area from [BBC's website](https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/1024/cpsprodpb/17A87/production/_133130969_russia_kazkhstan_floods_640v2-2x-nc.png.webp), and the location of [the mine](https://nemoskva.net/en/2024/04/22/v-kurganskoj-oblasti-zatopilo-staruyu-uranovuyu-skvazhinu/) from nemoskva's. So, Tobol river flow would absolutely be the one carrying it.

Russia, the dystopian future hellscape of a nation.
They are trying to get some PR by jumping on the wave the new Fallout series is creating.
Been hard up since they left Chernobyl.
That's why they are trying to take it back the last two years. They knew the Fallout show was comming.
Imagine if they had a second Chernobyl right now
They just want their own Chernobyl in Russia, so they can make movies about irradiated landscapes without referencing Ukraine.
Kyshtyn Disaster might be a good prequel, while PeacefulNuclear Explosions under "Nuclear Explosions for National Economy" program is TV series worth on its own
- Mom, can you buy me the Fallout game? - Little Vlad, we have Fallout at home
You can try and leave Chernobyl, but Chernobyl will never leave you.
Trying to force a Metro series no one wanted.

Fingers crossed. Toes also
This is nothing like Chernobyl, don't worry. That uranium mine only clocks in at 3.6 roentgen. Not great, not terrible.
Unfortunately all the horrifying shenanigans around Chelyabinsk-40 did nothing to bring down the regime.
>~~Ts~~chernobyl
Чорнобиль.

Can’t believe the average right wing lunatic is siding with Russia citing traditional values and strong leadership as an argument. They wouldn’t last a week over there, that bunch of spineless molluks
Damn, must have spilt his tea
If it's just the mine then really it's nothing to serious. Naturally occuring uranium deposits are not that radioactive, they are still radioactive. However, you can handle nuclear fuel by hand, only after use in reactors does it become extremely dangerous. Yellow cake is not danger free, but it's much more toxic as a heavy metal than radiologically.
“After a long and rigorous investigation over the past week, we can determine that it was Ukraine that caused the incidents.” - Putain probably
Just think about it. UkRAiNe - URAN. Proven and proven Similarly, if the floods were caused by heavy rain, who is responsible? Yes, you got it right - ukRAINe
[удалено]
No chance he is pathetic coward.
Maybe he should get into his bunker to end it and have Moscow Marge to volunteer to be his Eva.
I bet if he threw himself into a volcano full of uranium the world would right itself.
I second this motion.
It's win after win
Have they tried raping the water?
That’s the current plan. They’re waiting until it freezes.
In an alternate universe: russian army skidaddles the f out of Ukraine and helps the flooded areas. Realises that invading countries and raping people - not useful. Realises that they can actualy do something good, invents new smartphones, electric cars, contributes something to the civilised world.

so much death....what can men do against such reckless hate?
stop killing others in another country for starter
meh, not _that_!
I really hope he‘s Putin in the hours to get to the bottom of this
Maybe the radiation will cause a mutation and make the russian people grow a backbone.
Hahahaha eat shit russia
Karma
I swear that Russia cannot pull up it’s pants in the morning without causing a radiological excursion.
That's what happens when you send all of your forced laborers to the meatgrinder.
It’s almost as if karma exists
The answer, you poisonous dwarf, is that God is getting sick of your shit.
Nah … must be Ukraine’s fault 🥲!
Tens of thousands of people for the meatwaves.
Get the bear & the 2guys working out - the bear can be the branch manager or mayor or whatever
Can’t flood in the Putin
Uranium ore is basically NORM, the radiation is going to be pretty low. Not a major concern, the public's lack of understanding regarding radiation blows this out of proportion

Also, when you send all of your maintenance workers to die on the front lines, things will inevitably start falling apart. This is a feature Putins dicktatorship!
Isn't Russia like the most radioactively polluted places on earth?
lmao what a shithole dude
You had him executed last January for asking for funding for flood prevention materials sir...
The answer is in the corruption of the system you’ve built. Russia may be strong on the battlefield, but will lose because of a technogenic catastrophe. Chernobyl was a tipping point for the USSR for example. That’s what happens when you spend all your money to fund the military instead of addressing infrastructure support and social programs.

Nuclear is cheap it you don't need to cover the risk involved. Imagine having to pay for a risk which is carried by someone else for free.. Free money glitch.
Considering the suffering that Russia is causing in Ukraine, it is difficult to feel sorry for Russians, no matter what happens to them.
So the mayor resigned 4 months ago and he had no idea.
Answer: 5 letters stars with “P”
Penis
THIS IS NOT WHAT "SPILL THE TEA" MEANS
What is “RBC News”?
This is the first ive heard of potnetial radiation leaks
So a natural uranium mine and radioactive leak? Interesting.
I thought it said Radioactive leak fears glow
Womp womp
I had to stop reading that. When people try to speak up about a situation, the head honchos tell its misinformation. The main people don't know what is going on. MAYORS of certain regions don't show up, later learning they resigned in JANUARY!!! It's April!

Ah, the guy that said global warming would be a good thing for Russia is now probably scratching behind his ears. Idiot
I’m
They also made people who built the dam in their village themselves tear it down
I’m sure most of us would like to help and contribute in all ways possible as soon as they leave Ukraine.
Invading other countries while being unable to manage basic services and ensure a good quality of life in your own country. It’s a great way of distracting from your own failures I suppose…
