In Kyiv, two deaths: a woman and her young child murdered by a Russian attack on an apartment building. They also hit some government buildings in Kyiv for the first time, and even killed a bunch of horses with multiple shahed drones on a horse stables just outside of Kyiv. Never underestimate Russian pettiness and evil.
But, due to the amazing work of the Ukrainian military, it's still safer to be here than in Charlotte, North Carolina... Something like 90% of Russian drones get shot down.

Pre-war, Ukraine's murder rate was ~4/100k/year. Charlotte is ~12/100k/year.
_Including_ murders by Russian air strikes, Kyiv's murder rate is “only” 8.5/100k/year (~130 killed in the past year).
She was safer in ~100% white Kyiv than in black NC.
...and yes, the reason why I'm even writing this is I'm in Kyiv and anti-aircraft fire woke me up at 5am.
Hopefully no-one died tonight and made my stats out of date... But even then, if she had stayed in Kyiv and went to the shelters during air raids, she'd have been fine.
The problem is the black population. If not for them the US would actually be fairly low crime. Getting US (and western) politics to the point where we accept imprisoning, for life, a significant % of the black population is what it'll take to fix this.
Instead, that psychopath was arrested over and over again for violent crimes.
