Скачать или смотреть The 1938 Decision — When the Yellow River Became a Weapon

In 1938, during Japan’s rapid advance into China, the Chinese Nationalist government made a desperate and devastating decision: to breach the dikes of the Yellow River.
The goal was to slow the invading Japanese forces. The result was one of the deadliest man-made floods in history.
Entire villages vanished. Farmland turned into inland seas. Millions of civilians were displaced, and hundreds of thousands drowned — many without warning.
This is the story of a wartime decision that saved cities but destroyed lives, leaving scars that lasted for generations.
