Well, tonight it was loud again. Russia attacked Kyiv again with ballistic missiles and it seemed that there were several hits, including close ones, because once the house shook, and another time a specific rolling rumble could be heard in the distance. The sounds of Patriot anti-aircraft missile launches are easily distinguished from all the others. But the press never wrote anything about significant damage, electricity and water are there, so the only consequence for me was high blood pressure and heart pain. Maybe I would be healthy in another place?
But things are much worse elsewhere. A huge construction supermarket burned down in Kryvyi Rih, and in the frontline regions people are dying every day and there is great destruction due to glide bombs. https://www.bbc.com/ukrainian/articles/c78g7xyjrnpo

For three days now, passenger trains have not been going to the regional center in the east of Zaporizhia. Instead, they are going to the neighboring regional center, Dnipro. https://www.unian.ua/economics/transport/pasazhirski-pojizdi-ne-kursuyut-do-zaporizhzhya-vzhe-tri-dobi-13451568.html
The main organizer of the arms exhibition in the Kyiv region has been suspected of official negligence, which caused the death of people or other serious consequences. This was reported by the Prosecutor General's Office on Saturday, July 25. According to the investigation, one of the arms manufacturers' associations organized a large-scale exhibition without the consent of the military command, regional and district military administrations and other authorized bodies. https://zaxid.net/organizator_vistavki_ozbroyennya_na_kiyivshhini_otrimav_pidozru_v_sluzhboviy_nedbalosti_n1642286
This was expected. But it is quite hypocritical to talk about the responsibility of only the organizers, provided that the military, representatives of state bodies, international partners and business participated in the event, and air defense means were demonstrated, in particular. But it seems to me that one of the reasons for this tragedy is that the state has banned men from traveling abroad, as a result of which personnel from weapons manufacturers cannot participate in such events abroad. Well, at least a similar event that was supposed to take place soon in Lviv has been canceled.
Military Ombudsman Olga Reshetylova explained what a fair mobilization should be like. She stated that the parliament should adopt a package of bills on fair service. In particular, it limits the rights of those who evade. https://mobilizatsiya.novyny.live/obmezhennia-ukhiliantam-reshetilova-zrobila-zaiavu-pro-spravedlivu-mobilizatsiiu-337054.html In the comments, people immediately began to ridicule her initiative, advising to also ban them from traveling abroad.
In my opinion, exactly those who put themselves outside the boundaries of that tell others more than anyone else about fairness and what should be done. After all, if this respectable lady really wanted fairness, then as a young and healthy woman she could voluntarily sign a contract and spend at least a few months at the front, for example, as a nurse in a stabilization center. Maybe then someone else would be inspired by her example and believed in her sincerity.
