  I gave a little allowance for the perspective as well but still....
  I guess I just imagine anything that could make a crater that big would flatten buildings and toothpick trees in an 1/8th mile radius.
  Edit: wondering about effect radius of air burst vs ground impact ordinance.  Would welcome any insights.
context: This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 83%. (I'm a bot)
  
  
  Russia fired a second wave of missiles at Ukraine on Saturday, forcing people to take cover as sirens blared across the country just hours after morning air strikes that hit critical infrastructure in Kyiv and the eastern city of Kharkiv.
  DTEK, the biggest private electricity company, introduced emergency blackouts in Kyiv, the Kyiv region and Odesa region.
  Russia said on Friday that its forces had taken control of Soledar, in what would be a rare success for Moscow after months of battlefield reverses, but Kyiv said its troops were still fighting in the town.

  Silly question.  Given the presumed blast strength that accompanied that crater, how in the ever-lovin-Baby-Jeebus are there structures still standing in the background? Please 'splain, I dont understand. >
  
  Answer I expect to see on Reddit these days:
  BeCausE itS FaKEd tO maKE us BelIeVE RusSia still has rockets!!!
  My answer: perspective, the buildings are probably not as close as you think they are due to the angle the picture was taken at
