I’ll tried it, and for some reason, It did not worked for me. Maybe issue with forum software as Gorth said 🤷♂️

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
More about the Olenivka penal colony available at various sources. (sorry for the colour, but I am unable to remove it from the copypasta of the source material) “Open-source intelligence (OSINT) analyst Oliver Alexander published an examination of satellite imagery from July 27 showing open graves at the Olenivka prison, noting that July 29 satellite imagery appears to show that the same graves have been covered. Investigative journalism group Bellingcat founder Eliot Higgins stated that lower resolution satellite imagery indicates ground disturbances after July 18 and prior to July 21, suggesting that the Russians may have planned the incident in advance.” https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-july-31

US has assessed HIMARS were not used in Olenivka prison. Full article on it published by Politico. They were used against military echelon moving to Kherson though. 40 wagons full of ammunition, military vehicles and military personnel were hit.

What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
After almost 11 years, I decided to visit Atelier Totori again on my PS3, and start my second second playthrough of the game. I wanted to finish everything, what the game has to offer and achieve all prerequisites for the True Ending. I was able to get all the missing playthrough trophies, but unfortunately, I must have missed some character event, and as a result I was awarded with Rorona's Who's the Teacher? ending instead. It was a lot of busywork, especially getting 500,000 money, but thankfully, it is transferred together with the equipment to New Game+, so all subsequent playthroughs will be more easygoing . I am little bit sad, due to the time spent on planning of all of the in-game events during last two weeks, which I spent with the game, but well, at least I was able to finish all tasks in my Adventurer's License and defeat all of the super-bosses Hopefully next time, I will have more luck

Odesa regional administration: "attack in Sevastopol" is provocation and manipulation by Russia. https://t.me/UkraineNow/15784 Google translation: The "attack" in Sevastopol is an open provocation of Russia A number of Russian media reported on Ukraine's alleged attack on the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol. These are lies and manipulations of the enemy. "The liberation of our Crimea from the occupiers will take place differently and much more effectively," - Odesa OVA

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
You are correct, I t looks like I have mistranslated few of the sources I read and watched about that incident. They were indeed speaking about HIMARS and GRADs, but they were more or less trying to rule both of them out... my bad, so sorry for providing incorrect info I have seen some of the pictures yesterday from the site, and the most plausible outcome is, that it was an explosion inside of the building. The remnants of the building are pretty much ruling out any kind of explosion from the "sky". Some of the evidence seemed like, that some of the POWs were dead before the explosion and a some soldiers were definitely burned, which also shows the evidence of the unlikeliness of use of HIMARS or GRAD. Most of the sources are also coming to the same conclusion as you. Cover up of mistreatment of POWs. There is also one theory, that the owner of Wagner did order this, due to the "mismanagement" of funds, paid out by Kremlin to cover the expenses with POWs...

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
Two days ago, This Russian Soldier (Vitaliy Valerievich Aroshanov) has released a video, how he tortured, castrated and then killed a Ukrainina POW. Yesterday, Russia attacked a public bus stop in Mykolaiv with a rocket. Not linking here, due to clearly violating the board rules, but if someone would really like to see the proof, you can find in somewhere in the thread about that **** above. Yesterday also Russia put all imprisoned Ukrainian POWs from Maripoľ in a single building in occupied Olenivka, and launched MLRS Grad into it. Resulting in 50 dead POW and 130 wounded. And you are wondering, why some people might think, that it is acceptable to celebrate every Russian and collaborator demise in this war 🤷♂️

University of Yale has published a study about how Russia is obfuscating their economy performance under sanctions, and gives an insight about the real impact. 118 pages long. https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4167193 very short summary can be found here: This content cannot be displayed until agreeing to our use of Social Media cookies.

Meanwhile in Russia 🙀 You know, that your army is in deep ****, when some units give you an opportunity to become lieutenant in 4 months 🤷♂️

The only people I hear screaming, are the trolls like you when they are reading all day long, how many orcs were put to sleep again and again after HIMARS o’clock 🤣 Especially when their group travelled more than 6000 kms to reap what they saw 😏

Of course it never was, it was just a Russian scapegoat to move the blame from themselves. As always...

Another high profile target was hit yesterday. UA informators and partisans are sharing very valuable info.

And another example today, why any deal with Russia is just a waste of paper, ink and time. Just a single day after signing the grain export deal, Russia bombed the Odessa grain terminals with Kalibr missiles 🤷♂️

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
In the beginning of June, I have posted a Tweet about destruction of Wagner Base deep in LNR with hundreds of their mercenaries blown up. At the time it was just a rumour, although Girkin the **** was tweeting little bit about it as well, in the UA, there was almost complete silence about this mission. Now finally after month and a half, there is finally official confirmation of this attack from the Ukrainian side, in a nice article, how the information is collected behind enemy lines. The number of killed mercenaries is between 50 - 200, which is a pretty big blow, as most of these Wagners were highly trained and disciplined compared to DNR/LNR "volunteers". https://kyivindependent.com/national/exclusive-inside-ukraines-covert-operation-to-take-out-elite-wagner-group-mercenaries-in-donbas

Good news for people afraid of The Winter Draghi signed new energy deal with Algeria already, and von der Leyen has visited Baku to propose new energy deals with Azerbaijan. Few more small steps, and Russia will lose a big chunk of the market, and will have no more opportunities to even try to blackmail EU...

TLDR: It is not as bad, as some people are talking about, but could be worse, if EU does nothing.

I am guessing, the classic artillery might not be taken into consideration, but probably MLRS attacks are counted. IIRC there was a number released by British, that RU has launched over 2k Iskanders only (unable to find the source now, so feel free to correct me someone, if I remember it wrong), and they are shooting all kinds of missiles from planes, ships, submarines and land vehicles...
