    You can send a strike group to kill them. Safer for civilians, but less safe for soldiers. Thus, they prefer to bomb it from a distance, and the civilians around are “acceptable collateral damage”.

      You can’t when they’re not at the front. And as long as the c&c infrastructure exists, sending troops on the ground to take objectives is difficult.

      Taking out control infrastructure with remote bombing has been a thing since the first artillery pieces.
