Almost 90 bombs were dropped in one region in just 24 hours.

Russia unleashed an unprecedented bombardment in southern Ukraine overnight in what local officials described as a “massive attack” in the conflict which has continued to rage even as the international community’s attention has moved to the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

The Ukrainian Internal Affairs Ministry on Monday morning said Russia dropped at least “87 aerial bombs on populated areas of the Kherson region - the largest number for all time.” At least eight people were also injured in other Russian strikes carried out in the Odessa region further to the west on Sunday night.

    You missed the part where Arabs had been on that land for over a thousand years before the European Allies decided to sent their Jews back “home.”

    Also, fuck Putin.

      You’re missing the parts where Romans and Arabs colonized Judea, racism against Jews in the region were prevalent in Arab and reached a peak in Europe with WW2

      It’s easy to blame one side or the other depending on what you consider and what you don’t. Maybe the solution is, I don’t know, a two-state one that considers both?

        Agreed.

        All I’m saying is no one is innocent here except the civilians being executed at an appalling rate.
