> optimism for minimized civilian targets was mistaken

This is clearly not a target. And if you ever had seen the damage from the cruise missile (hint - look at two previous days with tons of footage of Kalibr hitting intended targets) you would clearly see what this is definitely not the amount of damage a proper missile would deliver. More so, given the position and direction there is a pretty high chance what it was an AA missile from the Ukrainian side.

Anyway, it is amusing how when anything happens which involves Russia it is killing intent and war crimes immediately, without even an attempt to reason it with a common sense.

Can't say anything on the second link, though it is very little damage for a cluster munition.
