  True; though seems that recently they do not seem to bother with anything but civilian targets only.
context: India is now the largest importer of Russian crude overtaking China. >

  According to S&P Global Commodity Insights, India is aiming to pursue an oil import policy that will witness robust inflows from both the US and Russia in the foreseeable future, while stepping up efforts to diversify the crude basket even further to cushion the impact of any supply shock going ahead. "Although the Russia-Ukraine war has given an opportunity to the country's refiners to bring in plentiful volumes of crude at discounted rates from the largest non-OPEC supplier, but that has not led to a fall in market share of the US, as India looks to bolster its energy ties with Washington," it said.
  As per Vortexa, India imported just 36,255 barrels per day of crude oil from Russia in December 2021, compared to 1.05 million bpd from Iraq and 9,52,625 bpd from Saudi Arabia.
  India imported 68,600 bpd of Russian oil in March 2022, which increased to 266,617 bpd in the following month and reached the previous peak of 942,694 bpd in June 2022.

  Basically nothing changed and Europe and US are still buying Russian oil via India and gas via China, so all sanctions are just big BS and made for publicity and to raise the cost of living for people, great, didn’t expect anything else really. >
  
  You seriously think that all the sanctions against Russia have no effect on Russia ? That they were only created for publicity and to raise cost of living, to what end may I ask ? You do realise that EU cut the dependency on Russian in a single year and that dependency is gone forever ? Russian war effort is going so bad that they are reduced to targeting civilians in desperate attempt to terrorise people into submission. 
  But do enlighten me, if not sanctions what exactly should have been done ? >
  
  Ha lol . They started this war by bombing civilians and hospitals. The attacks on people’s homes didn’t just start because they were pushed back . They bombed a theater full of families and kids and then hit a maternity hospital in the first two weeks of the war.
