Its a war. Civilians inevitably die in big wars.
You want to see pictures of the innocent civilians killed by American and British bombers in Dresden in WW II or the women and children killed by American troops in My Lai, Vietnam?

The damning difference here is that in WWII precision munitions were not available so collateral damage was unavoidable.

OTOH with today’s precision weapons hitting civilian areas actually indicates explicit targeting of civilians.

War crime.
