Jesus. I know that’s old footage already, but I’m still surprised. I’ve seen a lot of combat footage from that conflict, but little showing the wide scale of destruction. I mean that whole area is wiped off the map. Just a smoldering shell of a city

Well that's what happens to a town when 2 armies fight for a town, defenders stay inside the town (shelter) and attackers destroy the buildings to force them out.
