Its war. You can line a hundred infants against a wall and run them over with an MRAP and who is going to stop you? For all the horror of the Ukraine/Russia war, it pales beside the psycho shit happening in Gaza. But "its actually fine and good to kill civilians if you stamp 'enemy combatant' on the corpses when you're done" is the same stupid shit Americans did in Iraq in between civil wars and ethnic cleanses. It wasn't any better then than it is now.
Literally the same thing that happens when any enemy army takes a rival's territory. Pain, terror, and senseless brutal deaths.
