Russia says Ukraine targeted Moscow with drones on Sunday, the latest in a series of attacks that have brought the Ukraine war to Russia’s capital.

          Hard to know who to support - the country that launched a drone attack on a government building, got their drone deflected and hit a civilian building, or the country that invaded the other one, raped and slaughtered their citizens, men, women and children alike, bombed their infrastructure to oblivion, and also shoots their own forced conscripts when the conscripts realise the meat grinder they’ve been send to and surrender or retreat.

          Easy choice for some people to make, hard choice for some other people, like you, to make.

            Or you can not be a hypocrite and not support any country that endangers civilians. Bombing a government building isn’t like bombing a military installation. Regular people work in government buildings. Or does the janitor deserve to die for wanting to support his family?

      They were targeting government. But the drones got deflected and crashed into nearby structures.

      Why should we care? At best we could say that they are ignorant and at worst complicit. Will this attack prolong the war? Are you ready to decry every death on all sides at every opportunity, or just the ones you don’t agree with? Are there rules to war that only one side is allowed to break? Context matters

        No one should die on either side. No matter what, it is sad. What is worse is the people sitting on their high horses saying this is a good thing. Just disgusting.
