Russia says Western strikes kill Libyan civilians
Source: reuters

Russia called on Britain, France and the United States Sunday to stop air strikes against what it said were non-military targets in Libya, saying the attacks had caused civilian casualties.

"In that respect we call on countries involved to stop the non-selective use of force," Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said in a statement.

Lukashevich said 48 civilians were reported to have been killed and 150 wounded in the air strikes, figures that matched those given early Sunday by Libyan state TV. He said strikes had destroyed a medical facility, roads and bridges.

6. Civilians being killed. Who could possibly have foreseen this?
Those of us old enough remember "We had to destroy the town to save it."
