    The war was already going on before Russia sent troops in.

      Right, Ukraine was fighting corruption. Russia entered on the side of… corruption.

            I’m not sure what that has to do with shelling cities, are you suggesting he was hiding in one of the buildings or what?

              Look, the heckin’ wholesome slava ukrainis didn’t know where he was so they had to shell everywhere! It’s like playing Battleship, except it’s mostly other random innocent people that you hit
