Russia-Ukraine war: at least 51 people killed in Russian strike on village food shop
Russia-Ukraine war live: at least 51 people killed in Russian strike on village food shop, Zelenskiy says
Recent reports seem to indicate that the cafe was used as a meeting point for uniformed military personnel.
This has also happened in the past: https://www.businessinsider.com/russian-sleeper-agent-filmed-crowded-restaurant-missile-attack-ukraine-says-2023-6
In this proxy war between Russia and the West, it's Ukrainian civilians that suffer the most.
Wait you deleted your last argument defending Russia yesterday, to replace it with a whole new one? Because you were wrong? 😂
Including deleting everyone else's comments including mine. What was that about abusing admin privileges you were talking about yesterday?
I didn't delete it dude lol I swear
Edit: the modlog will back me up here
Edit 2: my last mod action was deleting a spam post yesterday
Edit 3: the only time I don't mark edits is when they're done literally minutes after posting and because they don't change my point (spacing, sources). I've marked all of my edits regarding this issue because, after looking at the new information that had come up, I realized that I was entirely wrong and Russian actions were completely violating standards of conduct in armed conflict.
Edit 4: the comments are still showing up on the alt I lurk on so idk what's going on lol
Is this going to be another one of those "Russian strikes" that turned out to come from a dud Ukrainian missile?
"In the meantime, we must not forget: it was Russia that launched the invasion of Ukraine and it is Russia that is responsible for bringing war to our country"
Ah yes, because drone strikes on schools in Donbas isn't a war and jailing opposition leaders is what normal countries do.
The period between Euromaidan and the SMO is rather terrifying. Suggesting that the war started with the SMO is completely missing the context of what happened prior to that event.
Context doesn't justify an action, but it's important for understanding it. The same applies here: the context of the Russian invasion doesn't justify Ukraine launching missiles at their own civilians, but it helps us understand why it happened.
Edit: with further context being revealed in the past day, I was wrong on this. The casualty count in this context is indicative of a precision strike and a gathering of friends and family and low-ranked military personnel is not a valid proportional military target to even come close to justifying the civilian casualties under international conduct code for armed conflict. Sorry, everyone.
yeah i wonder as well. always a russian missile until people take a look at it and it's radio silence from there lol.
funny how russia always gets clowned on for their false flags (they're laughably bad anyways) but when ukraine does it (and a decent job at one too) the ukraine supporters always do whataboutism.
always at strangely convenient times too.
i'm all for support for ukraine (it's people anyways). going to the equivalent of a vatnik doesn't help anyone.
Everyone responsible should face justice as war criminals.
