Russia indiscriminately targets civilian infrastructure, breaking all laws and conventions of war.
On August 22, 1864, representatives of 12 states signed the first Geneva Convention on the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded in Armies in the Field. This put a start to future conventions aimed at establishing international standards for humanitarian treatment in war.
In 1949, The Fourth Geneva Convention "relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War” was adopted and is still relevant to this day.
Russia has been documented breaching the Geneva Conventions throughout its invasion of Ukraine, bombing civilians and civilian infrastructure, including hospitals, schools and churches that people often resort to seeking safety and solace.

Daar hebben de Russen sowieso al een handje naar. Een paar maand geleden was er ook al nieuws dat drones boven militaire trainingsfaciliteiten gespot waren waar Oekraïense soldaten getraind worden. Al zou een deel van deze incidenten natuurlijk ook door burgers kunnen gebeuren zonder slechte intenties. Maar je kan beter van het slechtste scenario uitgaan in dit soort gevallen en daar naar handelen.quote:Op donderdag 22 augustus 2024 21:14 schreef spicymchaggis het volgende:

quote:‘Shown the Reality of War’ - HUR Hacks Multiple Russian TV Channels
Russian cyber security experts’ attempts to fix the situation on Wednesday evening, only resulted in the simultaneous shutdown of nine Russian TV channels.
Sources from within the Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR) told Kyiv Post that its cyber specialists had successfully launched an attack against Russian TV servers, which caused regular programming on several TV channels to be replaced by videos giving details of the war in Ukraine.
“HUR ‘hacked’ Russian television and exposed the reality of the war [to its people],” the source said.
According to the HUR, its video was aired three times during prime time on Russian channels such as Pervouralsk, Evraziya 360, and Pervyj Kanal TV, among others. Some of the targeted channels are owned by local oligarch Andrey Komarov.
Russian cyber security experts tried to resolve the situation, but their actions inadvertently led to the shutdown of these nine Russian TV channels: Evraziya 360, Evraziya Pervyj Kanal, Pervouralsk TV, Luhansk 24, Pervyi Respublikanskyi, SpB, Oplot, TV-3, and First Russian.

A Danish rapper whose rejection of “European values” and support for Vladimir Putin led him to migrate to Russia last year, has won a legal battle to terminate a contract he signed with the Russian Defence Ministry, independent news outlet Mediazona reported on Thursday.
Nicklas Hoffgaard, who performed in Denmark under the name Stanley Most before announcing his retirement in 2018, was initially granted a Russian residence permit in 2023. However, after experiencing problems trying to extend it, he decided to sign a contract with the Russian Defence Ministry in the hope of obtaining Russian citizenship.
Hoffgaard, 33, had expected to become a border guard in Siberia, according to Mediazona, but was instead sent to eastern Ukraine to serve in a unit responsible for launching drone strikes, where he complained that his fellow soldiers considered him a spy and forced him to drink vodka.
Roman Petrov, Hoffgaard’s lawyer, told the court that his client had not understood the terms of the contract he signed as he does not speak Russian. Despite the court ruling in his favour, Hoffgaard may still have to face another trial at a military court in Novosibirsk before being able to return home, Mediazona reported.
On Monday Vladimir Putin signed a decree designed to simplify the relocation process for foreign citizens who want to move to Russia because they support “traditional Russian spiritual and moral values” and oppose the “neoliberal ideology” of their home countries.

This week’s drone attack on the Olenya airbase was one of several recent Ukrainian strikes against the far northern Russian region.
Almost at the same time, a big number of drones attacked targets in the Moscow region, as well as more southern regions of Volgograd, Voronezh, Rostov, Bryansk, Belgorod and Kursk.
With massive air defence fire, Russian forces took down the UAV that had the shape of Aeroprak A-22 Foxbat ultralight aircraft. The drone exploded in the air near the small military town of Vysokii.
According to several sources, the Kola Peninsula has been subjected to Ukrainian attacks over several days this week. It is not clear if any of the drones hit their targets, or were shot down by Russian air defence. In late July, a drone made it all the way to Olenya where it reportedly damaged a long-range supersonic bomber-missile carrier TU-22M3.
Locals in the heavily militarised Kola Peninsula are now increasingly concerned about the situation.

Ukraine’s Air Force hit a platoon base in Russia’s Kursk region with high-precision U.S. GBU-39 bombs on Aug. 22, Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk reported.
The strike comes amid Ukraine’s incursion into the Kursk region, which started on Aug. 6.
"A drone command post, a radio-electronic warfare unit, equipment, weapons, and up to 40 Russian service members were hit," Oleshchuk said on Telegram.
Oleshchuk published a video showing the attack, which happened at 4 p.m. local time on Aug. 22.
He did not disclose any further details on the consequences of the attack and how many Russian soldiers were injured and killed.
Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, said on Aug. 20 that Kyiv had advanced between 28-35 kilometers (18-21 miles) into Russia's Kursk Oblast as the unprecedented incursion enters its third week.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Aug. 22, while visiting the border areas in Sumy Oblast, that Ukraine had captured another Russian settlement in Kursk Oblast, as well as more Russian prisoners of war.

Russia was once the global leader in military drone and electronic warfare technology, particularly at the tactical level. However, in the 30 months since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, it has lost its edge in these technical areas.
In contrast, Ukraine has emerged as a world leader in these fields, with its defense industries developing increasingly advanced systems for their military.
This is especially true for drones and electronic warfare systems, which have rapidly evolved during the course of the war. Ukraine outpaced Russia in development, allowing them to deploy more advanced systems more quickly, gaining a decisive edge.

quote:Rostov Region begins massive sale of oil depots after fire in Proletarsk
Fire trucks extinguishing oil depot in Proletarsk consecrated
Owners of oil depots in the Rostov region rushed to get rid of assets amid attacks from Ukraine. The number of ads for the sale of such objects increased after drones struck a fuel depot in Proletarsk, RostovGazeta noted . The oil depot has not been extinguished for five days.
One of the ads was posted on Tuesday, August 20. The owner offers to buy a property in Volgodonsk for 30 million rubles. Another oil depot is located in Azov and is being sold for 60 million rubles. On June 18, Ukrainian drones flew to the storage facility of the Azovproduct plant. The fire that engulfed the tanks with oil products took three days to extinguish over an area of 3.2 thousand m².
Another base is for sale in Matveyev Kurgan. The owner decided to part with it, despite the fact that a year ago he carried out a "major overhaul of all equipment" and buildings. Among the bonuses, he names the fact that the facility has two fire tanks and a fire pond. The price is 45 million rubles.
Also in the region they are trying to sell two oil refineries and an oil depot, which is currently not working. The price is not indicated in the ads.
Ondertussen zijn er al 49 mensen gewond geraakt, waarvan ik aanneem dat het om brandweerlieden gaat, 15 hiervan zijn opgenomen in het ziekenhuis.SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.
