Conflict zone tourism is a bad idea however you look at it.
That was a very different kind of war, with pitched battles and limited-range artillery and no bomber aircraft. The only thing that’s carried over (past the 20th century era of total war) is that we’re back to a time when bombers aren’t really used.
The odd thing to now is that a lot of people are able to go about their daily peacetime lives as if nothing is happening once the front or battlefields have moved 50+ miles away. I’ve heard this about Kiev and also about Damascus.
