War......part 1

Assalamua'laikum and hope everyone is having a great day.

I've heard about war almost everyday. And one of the reason I don't like watching the news is because of the topic that come out every single time the news is on. WAR!!!..... I might not feel it here, but I still think that no one should have gone through what they did in the midst of war.

I could never imagine how much it hurts for those people. Some even get used to the smell of corpse around them. It is so different here, where some people will even faint when seeing blood. Its not their choice to be in the middle of the war, but they are strong just to live each day knowing they might die the next minute or even the next second.

I've searched for the consequence of war on the net. Here are some of the numbers that might shock us.
