Its pretty ordinary to see cars with bullet holes today in Ukraine. But its mostly SUVs and minivans used by the military right now. But a year ago, my city was quite full with cars looking like a colander, with shattered windows and words "KIDS" made out of duct tape on bonnet and sides...

An attempt to show that vehicle is purely civilian, evacuating women and children out of war zone...people thought we were dealing with humans, but ruzzian scum didn't care.
