Mistake in "Injured" sub-subheading

It says "The attack injured 22 civilians, some seriously and some shot." This is nonsensical so it should be fixed. I can't go to the sources and figure out what it was actually supposed to say though, as I'm extremely drunk. Just pointing it out, please fix, thanks 🙏 62.74.12.43 (talk) 21:16, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

I revised the text to "The attack injured 22 civilians, some seriously." but there's nothing "nonsensical" about an attack that involved explosive devices and shrapnel from those, as well as broken glass and other projectiles injured people. And some of those injured were shot, so the original text is also correct. BBQboffin^{grill me} 02:28, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
