In the way that you don't die from a bullet, but rather from your body's reaction to the abrupt entering of that bullet in its perimeter.

- unmole 5y agoSaying it happened as a result of the Russian invasion is accurate, saying it happened because of Russian airstrikes is not.
- Aeolun 5y agoAssuming it was destroyed by Ukrainian artillery, which is very much still in question.
- unmole 5y agoIt could have been destroyed by Russian infantry for all we know. But that's still not a Russian airstrike.
- efdee 5y agoIf you agree it is a result of the Russian invasion, you can't say it's not a result of Russian airstrikes. Maybe not a direct result in the sense that a Russian rocket destroyed it (although there's no reason to rule that out at this point), but definitely as an indirect result. No invasion, no destroyed An-225. No Russian airstrike, no destroyed An-225.
- unmole 5y ago> If you agree it is a result of the Russian invasion, you can't say it's not a result of Russian airstrikes. Airstrike has a specific meaning. From what I understand Russian attack on the airport was primarily an assault by airborne infantry. It's entirely possible that the Antonov was destroyed by a Russian munition. It still doesn't mean it was a result of a Russian airstrike.
