Once again you attempt to apply a heavy slant to matters. As said by Nutty, the heavy artillery bombardment over a wide front is recent - only been happening for 25% (?) of the war: even when Mariupol was being reduced to rubble, the numbers of Ukranians killed would have been far less because of protection by the destroyed buildings.
