What is the ruling for waging war in cities?

> Sahih Bukhari (52:256) - The Prophet... was asked whether it was permissible to attack the pagan warriors at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The Prophet replied, "They (i.e. women and children) are from them (i.e. pagans)." > > — [Bukhari](https://sunnah.com/bukhari:3012) Because some non Muslims interpret this as "In this command, Muhammad establishes that it is permissible to kill non-combatants in the process of killing a perceived enemy. This provides justification for the many Islamic terror bombings" . Please explain it
