Even if the old trope “no women and children” by professional assassins is to be believed…the Russian State mechanism is truly the lowest of the low.
Oh, they excel at targeting civilians. They don’t shoot back.
You should have vetted this first.
In the interest of full factual accuracy, there were two missile strikes on Kremenchuk a few minutes apart - the first one hit the shopping mall, and the second hit the outskirts of a factory that produces roadwork machinery. The park videos show the second strike - in the segment where a man carries a child behind a tree you can see the smoke from the first hit at the top of the frame before you see the second missile explode. Bellingcat has an article about geolocating the footage and debunking bullshit Russian narratives:
This IS a terrorist act, pure and simple.
Russia IS a terrorist state - a sponsor of state terrorism
Of course, the current sanctions have gone way beyond what is detailed here, but still… there needs to be a fifth name on this list.
