Some of these photos I've already seen elsewhere but others round out the scope
of the damage to property, Ukrainian military response and civilians fleeing the fighting.
What a mess!

1. Noticed in three different pictures this morning

the shells still had their tailfins intact. Wonder if they have defective bombs?

2. Its possible

There will always be duds. But exploded ordnance can still leave them intact. Casings aren't entirely destroyed when they explode. Its entirely possible for the rear portion of a bomb or missile to still be mostly intact after detonation.

3. Yes, it's possible that there are defective bombs and missiles. We know that they don't

know the difference between civilian and military targets. But even defective bombs and
missiles cause damage and death.
