Almost 90 bombs were dropped in one region in just 24 hours.
Russia unleashed an unprecedented bombardment in southern Ukraine overnight in what local officials described as a “massive attack” in the conflict which has continued to rage even as the international community’s attention has moved to the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
The Ukrainian Internal Affairs Ministry on Monday morning said Russia dropped at least “87 aerial bombs on populated areas of the Kherson region - the largest number for all time.” At least eight people were also injured in other Russian strikes carried out in the Odessa region further to the west on Sunday night.
Quick question bro but like what’s the ratio of dead Palestinian kids we’re shooting for that’s gonna make em square? Because you can say “we got the bad guy” all ya want, but if you had to bomb a refugee camp 3x to do so, for example, well that brings up some moral qualms for a lot of people.
Of course it does. War is terrible no matter what you do. There were 500k German civilian deaths in WW2 from the Allied Forces’ bombing. Does that mean it shouldn’t have been done?
Uh… Yes? Multiple multinational treaties are now in place that disallow indiscriminate carpet bombings
That was 500k civilian deaths with strategic bombing specific infrastructure, not indiscriminate; it would’ve easily been in the millions otherwise.
War has always been costly. Israel is keeping casualties low by comparison, considering Hamas literally governed and built Gaza for 15 years around the idea of using civilians as human shields.
A lot of " strategic bombing " was just to target civilians to cause terror. From the wiki: “Strategic bombing often involved bombing areas inhabited by civilians, and some campaigns were deliberately designed to target civilian populations in order to terrorize them and disrupt their usual activities.”
Look at this armchair warrior, giving his enlightened opinion about how Israel or any nation is justified in bombing civilians, old, young, women.
Try having bombs dropped on your head for a conflict you don’t have a voice on. It’s always the privileged assholes who think like this.
God I’m glad people like you aren’t all in charge. Easy for you westerners to say pretentious bullshit when you don’t have to worry about Islamist terror groups in your country taking it over.
Privileged? You don’t know how privileged you are.
Yes, wtf, bombing civilians is always wrong.
There’s a massive difference between targeting civilians to kill, and having civilian casualties while bombing specific strategic targets.
Or do you think it’d have been better to not bomb strategic targets, letting Nazi Germany gain the upper hand and kill millions more?
