SBU releases an intercepted call between two Russians allegedly discussing the arrivals at Yelenovka earlier today. The translation of the call is here, but we cannot guarantee authenticity of the call, can only say that the voices sound quite believable.
For some extra context, as we can understand from the call and the translation, an explosive device was set up at the industrial wing of the camp where a number of prisoners was moved two days prior. Shortly before the explosive device was set off, a MLRS Grad complex placed...
...nearby fired three 10-missile “packets” to cover up the noise from the explosion.

"I once heard a phrase which struck my mind - “Russia is a huge train with its locomotive in the 21st century, and its tail end in the 19th.” Image
