Hydraulic warfare
text:
Hydraulic warfare (HW) is the use of water from reservoirs, rivers, canals, and other water features to impede the operations of an opposing force. This may involve breaching dams and rerouting watercourses. It can be used to impede the advance of an attacker or to reduce the resources and tactical options for defenders. The technique has been used to create "devastating floods, isolate troops, cut off supply lines, hinder river crossings, and disrupt military timetables".
