Canadian fighter-bombers participated in an airstrike in Iraq yesterday. Four smart munitions were expended. Iraqi reports suggest that there was some collateral damage.
Identify 2 euphemisms and tell what for they are.
1. Four smart munitions were expended
Euphemism for "four bombs were dropped"
2. collateral damage
Innocent civilians killed or injured.

I am so curious what the OP thought the euphemisms were.
I mean, what else could they be?
Sunday night homework.
