[QUOTE="SoldierOfTheKing, post: 76637846, member: 136506"] The purpose is to hinder the Ukranian ability to move troops and supplies. Militarily, that's legitimate enough. Forget what strangers post in an online chat board, what about what the Geneva Conventions says about it? What does that tell you? Given the train stations military value and its proximity to the front line, why were [I]any[/I] civilians allowed in its vicinity? From a military standpoint that would make no sense. Which would do more to disrupt the rail network? Which would be more difficult to repair? Simple matter of logistics, when you attack transportation infrastructure, you strike the hubs. If the Ukrainians had civilians congregated at a military target, that's on them... My grandfather was a bombardier on a B-17 Flying Fortress, he hit railyards all the time. They never held off just because there were civilians there. [/QUOTE]
