Why didn't they kill all the civilians in Kherson or Melitipol then?Allegations from whom?
And it’s a basic pysop to imprison an entire situation and kill the innocents to sap the will of the defenders
Why haven't they just completely leveled these cities already then?
Why did you agree in this very thread that Russia was going relatively soft and could just start slaughtering civilians to improve military outcomes?
Russians = want civilians out so they can bomb Ukrainian forces with impunity and try to avoid even greater calls for foreign intervention.
Ukrainians = Know the above.
You should be happy that the Ukrainians do not fail basic logic like you do on this one, bruv. But you shouldn't be happy about the implications of them being smarter than you.
