Buildings can be replaced... People can’t.

Most of Europe was re-built after World War 2 and everything looks old, but a lot of it only 78 years old or younger.

Yep, that's pretty much Warsaw in a nutshell. They recreated the entire Old Town from scratch.

So in the midst of a rocket attack, the Ukrainians blow up a church, yup got it.

The Putin Propagandists here are absolutely shameless. Lie upon lie upon lie.

Also Russia hasn’t forgotten what happened in Odesa when they burned people alive.

However did Zelensky really think hitting Putins bridge would not bring a serious response and Zelensky’s failure to sustain the conditions of their grain deal. I think Zelensly enjoys this war.

Lots of damage caused when Russian rockets knocked off their target by Ukraine Defenses and hit un-intended sites. If evil Russians were targeting churches, why not hit them on Sunday when filled with worshipping old ladies? What was lost can be rebuilt. If you want to be evil maybe carpet bomb Odessa with Cluster bombs?

The church was affiliated with the Russian Orthodox Church until Zelensky announced a crackdown on Moscow-affiliated Orthodox Church in Ukraine.

One of the best was when the one official in front of an audience I think in India claimebukraine attacked them and the audience laughter. Sadly most Russians probably believe that

It was AA missile which hit this church. If it would be a strike missile then there were no this building anymore.
