The soldier at the focal point in this picture looks like a child, no older than 15.

If you zoom in they all look so young. They are all basically kids. And in a couple hours a good chunk of them will have been killed/disabled for life and/or done the same to another human.

War is a terrible thing. Entire generations of teens and men are lost. It's why Putin's war is unbelievably wasteful. There was no reason to fight, he just did it to keep unrest down. People like him are monsters.
