For no reason, a short primer on DPICM ("Steel Rain"), the U.S.' main tube artillery cluster submunition.
M42/M46 DPICM is a small, shaped charge warhead meant to defeat both armor and personnel across a wide area.
The two primary 155mm DPICM rounds are M483A1 (88 individual submunitions, shorter range) and M864 (72 individual submunitions, basebleed for greater range).

Here is Echo Battery, 2nd Battalion, 11th Marines shooting 155mm DPICM during Summer Firex '18.
GMLRS DPICM for HIMARS and M270 is a bit of a different story.

The 28-point peace plan is effectively a wish list for Russia and will almost certainly lead to more conflict in the future.

Of note, a significant number of the agreements put major demands on Europe; at the same time, the U.S. claims that it can disregard any European input.
> If Ukraine invades Russia, it will lose security guarantees.

The conflict in 2022 literally started with a series of (poorly) attempted false-flag operations conducted by the Russians in Donetsk.
> The size of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be limited to 600,000 personnel.

Effectively makes Ukraine rely on Western security guarantees, ones that can be withdrawn.

Last night, a Russian fuel train derailed and caught fire in Perm.

At least 9 tanker cars caught fire, burning for most of the night and heavily damaging a half kilometer of railway track.

It's generally not good when your government borrowing line goes vertical.

Seen here: Russia's government borrowing line for 2025 going vertical. Image
Late last month, the governor of Russia's Rostov Oblast announced that the region would be forced to cut state spending, with bank loans too expensive to fill its budget shortfall.

Russia's oil export market is also suffering after recent U.S. sanctions scared off a number of customers in China and India.

New from @hntrbrkmedia: We found a dozen Ukrainian children listed for adoption on Russian websites. Days after we sent the evidence to Ukrainian prosecutors, the pages disappeared.

How Russia is stealing Ukraine’s future (thread). Image
Our team cross-checked more than 35,000 profiles on Russian adoption platforms with Ukraine’s Children of War missing persons database.

We identified twelve Ukrainian children between the ages of six and fifteen. They were shown as “Russian orphans.” Image
We used image recognition and open-source tools to confirm the matches. The results showed clear signs that these children were Ukrainian, not Russian.
