Original Note:
This is incorrect. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68573646 International humanitarian law mandates that civilians and civilian objects must never be targeted to safeguard human rights and dignity. The principle of proportionality prevents excessive military harm relative to the anticipated military advantage. https://casebook.icrc.org/a_to_z/glossary/proportionality https://casebook.icrc.org/a_to_z/glossary/civilian-objects
