Operation White Snow (UN Civil War)

Operation White Snow was the code name for the irradiation and destruction of the Panama Canal by the Russian Federation and the UN Solidarity Council in 2092 during the UN Civil War. The operation created a stick in the world trade industry and cut Central and South America in two. The idea came from Colonel Lebedev from the Strategic Defense Coalition (Later the UN Solidarity Council) Science Institute in Omsk, Russia. The affected area is from Colon to Panama City Panam. All areas within a 100-mile radius of the canal. The estimated cost was 300 billion won and the projected occupational casualties were less than 500 (exact figures are unknown). The primary research and development were done at the Vladimir Putin Memorial Nuclear Facility in St. Petersburgh. The operation was carried out by UN Light Infantry Divisions, the UN Air Force, Special Operations sub-division.
== Day One (Operation Huele A Quemado) ==
The first day of the destruction of the Panama Canal occurred on February 17th, 2092. The Organization of American states had banned Russian ships from entering the Canal after the invasion of America, however, they did not account for other UN Solidarity Council Members, which had declared Neutrality, or so thought. 
On this day several Venezuelan Cargo ships entered the Panama Canal, carrying containers filled with all kinds of goods. However, each ship had a self destruct sequence, and the crew was specially trained for suicide missions. All the 10 ships in the Canal self-destructed, which ended up blown several holes in the Canal and flooding the entire thing. 
Venezuelan troops continued onwards by sending in infantry divisions to set fire in surrounding areas around the now flooded Canal so workers couldn't come in and fix the Canal
== Day Two (Operation Delta) ==
Operation Delta was the second part of the Russian Federation's attempt to destroy the Canal, after the flooding of the Canal, Russian submarines entered the Panam Canal on February 18th, 2092. The submarines began firing short and long-range missiles across Central and South America to disrupt military and civilian installations to allow for an eventual Russian invasion of Latin America. Such targets included Mexico City, Panama City, and San Jose. 
== Day Three (Operation White Snow) ==
The final day of the destruction of the Canal occurred on February 19th, 2092. The Russian Air Force sent TU-95 bombers filled with 100,000 tons of "Element 143" a white powdery substance that when inhaled by any organism can melt their bodies from the inside. 
The Russian air force dropped Element 143 on cities, towns, and other infrastructure within a 100-mile radius of the Canal, killing an unknown number of civilians and enemy soldiers in the process. 
== Aftermath ==
In the aftermath of the attack, the world's shipping industry was severely crippled, and it eventually allowed the Russian led the United Nations to effectively conquer any place they wanted. However, after the defeat of the Russian Federation, the world's shipping industry effectively came to a halt which prompted the US to find a different method to build a new canal for world trade, making the entire Operation White Snow, pointless in the long run.
