Closed-circuit television video has captured the precise moment a Russian strike hit a residential area in Kharkiv, Ukraine, resulting in intense fires and widespread debris. According to officials, the attack struck a local grocery store, killing three individuals and wounding 20 others, two of whom are children.
Russian Strike on Kharkiv Grocery Store Kills Three and Injures 20
It’s just food. They were buying groceries, not fighting. This level of brutality is beyond comprehension.
I’m skeptical of the exact casualty numbers from either side, but the targeting of a market is clearly deliberate.
Twenty injured is devastating enough without the death toll. A grocery store? Simply unconscionable.
Another day, another civilian target. When does the world stop treating Kharkiv as a battlefield?
The footage is horrifying. Those children—what did they do to deserve this?
