You’re forgetting that Ukraine has successfully attacked the bridge twice already.

In October 2022 a bomb on a truck detonated, causing 2 spans to collapse and killing 5.

In July 2023 two sea drones targeted the bridge & killed 2 & injured 1. The two killed were a husband & wife. The injured one was their child.

Traveling into a warzone.. I mean yeah it sucks but mentioning they are a family is irrelevant.

The post I was responding to claimed the Ukrainians were trying to avoid civilian casualties. This clearly demonstrates that civilian casualties were involved.

They can try to avoid civilian casualties and still have civilian casualties....

For a major thoroughfare 3 casualties is extremely low, even for a multi car accident that's low. You can throw shade on Ukraine for some stuff but clearly by every military definition they are actively avoiding civilian casualties.

Why you would even mention it when Russia is bombing hospitals and schools is .... Either very clear or just wildly stupid.

True, though if you constantly cause civilian casualties you end up being in the same odor as Russia, or the us law enforcement.

Not really good look for a country needing the rest of the world's assistance.
