Almost 90 bombs were dropped in one region in just 24 hours.

Russia unleashed an unprecedented bombardment in southern Ukraine overnight in what local officials described as a “massive attack” in the conflict which has continued to rage even as the international community’s attention has moved to the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

The Ukrainian Internal Affairs Ministry on Monday morning said Russia dropped at least “87 aerial bombs on populated areas of the Kherson region - the largest number for all time.” At least eight people were also injured in other Russian strikes carried out in the Odessa region further to the west on Sunday night.

      Incorrect word.

      The use of a loaded latin word like genocide is used to invoke mass killing and wiping out a population completely. If you see it used you know the source is extremely biased and should not be taken as fact.

      Use the correct language so you don’t look like a fool.

        You keep repeating this like you believe it. Find an English dictionary you’ll realise it’s an English word and it has a precise meaning that is not what you think it is. The fact you don’t agree with that meaning is your problem only, you don’t get to decide

        Genocide is an English word with English definitions.

        You can argue about its roots and such, but that’s a different discussion.

        It’s like “decimate”. Decimate is an English word with a different definition to the Latin word its based on. It used to mean “kill one in every ten”, now it means “to kill/destroy almost, but not completely”. (Almost the opposite meaning)
