"Truth is the first casualty of war" is an often quoted adage. But in warfare, it's very often civilians who are first to fall victim to conflict.

Unfortunately, history has witnessed similar urban battlefield scenarios in which the innocent become collateral damage, along with non-military buildings and infrastructure.
