This is a thread specifically for the war, not a general megathread (use the pinned /c/genzedong thread for that).

I know cloud seeding is a thing; it would be curious to know if they can induce drought that way too.

Cloud seeding is relatively straightforward. Just put some dust in the air at the right altitudes. It's why you'll often see it rain after a firework show. Or presumably a few days of missile launches.

If there's one thing I hate about having my eyes opened to how untrustworthy anything in western media is, it's that I can no longer read shit like this and dismiss it as a conspiracy theory.
