    I can’t think of a single war that hasn’t had civilian casualties. This smells like propaganda designed to motivate Americans to continue to support the funding of Ukraine (angry lemmings and kibsters about to come into my replies is going to demonstrate that this is working to some degree too lol)

      The Pig War.

      Oh, and I’m not angry nor denying this is propaganda. That’s war. Part of it is propaganda now. Hell, most news are propaganda, tbh.

      Edit: only reason i know about that war is because i asked almost the same question on reddit before. Lmao.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Associated Press reporters saw emergency crews pulling the boy’s body from the rubble of a building after the early morning attack.

    One of the missiles landed in the street, leaving a crater, and the other hit a three-story building, setting it ablaze, according to Oleh Syniehubov, head of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration.

    His visit to the summit aimed to secure more military aid, among other goals, and Zelenskyy said late Thursday that his efforts had produced results.

    Concerns over the resupply of Ukraine’s armed forces have deepened amid political turmoil in the United States and warnings that Europe’s ammunition and military hardware stocks are running low.

    The Swedish government said Friday it plans to send to Ukraine a military aid package worth 2.2 billion kronor ($199 million), mainly consisting of 155-millimeter artillery ammunition.

    “We are preparing for it to be a long war, therefore we need to design our support long-term and sustainably,” Defense Minister Pål Jonson told a press conference.
