While testifying today in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Gen. Alexus G. Grynkewich, the Commander of the U.S. European Command and Supreme Allied Commander Europe, said:

“What I've observed over the course of studying air power in history is that anytime you attack a civilian population, you usually end up finding that it just hardens their resolve. We take this all the way back to the London Blitz in World War II. The Brits just had a stiff upper lip and kept on fighting. And I think that's what we've seen in Ukraine as well.”
