True High Explosives are indiscriminate lethal weapons.
Also true that in WAR there will be civilian casualties accidentally and NOT accidentally (Germany's London Bombing for example)
Even ground troops will occasionally kill unintentionally a civilian who is in the wrong place at the wrong time or LOOKS just like the enemy who is firing at you..
It is why the expression about WAR being "hell" is apropos.
I've been shot at by what looked like mere children as we approached a village. Its hard to distinguish between who is the enemy and who is not.
They don't all wear uniforms for identification..
Jes a little more info for that subject... I'm sure you know these things already.
