It’s senseless and horrible how they are launching unguided missiles into residential areas, especially areas that are already poor and struggling. Absolutely barbaric. I don’t see any strategic military gain this could provide other than potentially scaring off people who wish to fight back, at the cost of the innocent.


Yeah, countries should stop warring and deal with stuff behind negotiation tables. Because during any military confrontation in densely populated areas such things happen, as for reasons: Ukrainian military probably placed some weaponry or relocated a militant group nearby. For objectivity point - Ukraine did the same during the Donbass conflict: https://www.hrw.org/news/2014/07/24/ukraine-unguided-rockets... (legit Human Rights Watch source)


Question: if one side wishes to capture a city, and one side wishes to defend it, where will the military confrontation take place? Do you blame the Red Army for the destruction of Stalingrad?


It's not about blame, but causality.
