indeed, getting whole companies blown up because their commander quartered them in a multistory building within easy enemy artillery range is just unavoidable in war. sun tzu himself mentioned it

@CoQ_10 @deprecated_ii Reports are saying it was a HIMARS attack.
For the Ukrainians, this amount of deaths would be a low daily number, for the Russians it's a lot to lose at once, and entirely through the sheer ineptitude of whatever officer made the call to put those soldiers there.
That said, anyone dooming over it is retarded. It's a tragic mistake, not something that will turn the tide on the front. It's notable precisely because the Russians don't lose that many people on a daily basis.

@deprecated_ii I wonder what type of artillery it was?
One of our gifts?
