What rock are you living under? Have you seen what a good half of the cities in Luhansk and Donbass look like? They look worse. Most of those cities will never be rebuilt, and the destruction is so thorough. There are shots of Bakhmut that look like the end of the world. During the day, the sky was black, you couldn't even see the sun, and you could smell the death and destruction from kilometers away.

- NomDePlum 1y agoThat destruction is horrifying. Apologies I hadn't realised there was such damage in so many areas. I'm not sure it is worse, from those sources, but it's not a competition. It is absolutely destruction to a scale we seldom see. Gaza does have the added dimensions of the entire region and population being affected with no hope of rebuilding whilst Israel basically cuts off all supply routes. Hopefully in the future for Ukraine those areas that are less affected can contribute to rebuilding themselves parts.
