Even if it was a Ukrainian air defence missile what difference does it make? It was fired in self-defence. Those civilians would still be alive along with many many thousand more civilians if Russian hasn’t attacked them. There can be no justification or excuse.

It does make a difference because you might want to know the reason why your weapons explode in your hands

Hand waivy "it's all Russia anyway!" is as useful as those middle age plebs who blamed god for plague, while living in shit and among rats

Read the history of the conflict since 2014. Read about the Mink and Minsk2 agreements which Ukraine didn't respect. Read about Ukraine's attempts to join NATO.
