Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has warned that it was “inevitable” that “war” would come to Russia after authorities there were forced to temporarily close a busy Moscow airport following an overnight drone attack on the capital.

    Russia’s Defense Ministry called it an “attempted terrorist attack” and claimed that one drone had been shot down and two others jammed, leading them to crash into Moscow’s prestigious Moskva-Citi business complex.

    We don’t know what the targets were.

      Good point. I suppose my point still stands in terms of how people welcome such events, rather than the events themselves. A similar statement could be done for the missile in Taganrog few days ago.

      Assuming they were not the intended targets, it still seems that a good chunk of the people participating in the discourse justifies this type of attacks anyway.

      Edit: I am keen on hearing the point of views of those who downvote. I am trying to move the conversation forward specifically to hear different perspectives.

        I don’t think people want to have a conversation about hypothetical opinions about hypothetical events, I would rather discuss the facts as we know them.

          Literally the comment I responded to was making a generic (abstract) statement, so I’d say that you are well within your rights to have the conversations you want, but so are others.
