Titles like this are cancer since they intentionally mislead. It's "a billion rubles", thus tens of millions $. Pretty insignificant.
It's actually "billions" of rubles. Assuming for the sake of easy math that it were 10 billion rubles, that's over 100 million usd. Not insignificant especially during a war. Obligatory fuck Putin.
Interpreting "billions" as 10 billions is IMHO stretching it.
Eh, I'd say "billions" could go all the way to 20 billion before switching terminology to tens of billions.
Oof, that's got to be some hundreds of thousands by now.
A ruble is worth a penny right?
So this is basically saying their economy could lose 10million$
*insert Dr. Evil meme here*
Probably about 9 right now.
Classic click bait title. Article doesn't even state which dam burst. Railroad traffic is suspended which means it will be back to operational once the water recedes. Garbage title garbage article.
Of course because there's absolutely no issue with tracks that were under water. The foundation is just fine.
What's a billion rubles these days? $2.50?
About tree fitty
God damn Loch Ness монстр!
This damn inflation man..
Anything which hurts the Russian economy is a good thing.
so a Russian dam fucked itself and a railroad? nice BOGO
Fuck ‘em.
