Don't oil refineries have civilians working in them?
A valid point to raise, but one worthy of debate.
There’s a difference between a bunch of monks, and a bunch of state-aligned gas workers. Perhaps not much, but, still, something worthy of a conversation.

That doesn't take away their status as legitimate wartime targets.
I never said it did, but it does underline the need for careful tactics that minimize civilian harm.
Sounds like this one was successful in that which is good.
