    Graffiti seen on bridge in Ulan Bator, Mongolia:

    Россия, не связывайся с монголами. Чингиз уже надрал тебе задницу. Мы сделаем это снова.

    Translation: Russia, do not get involved with Mongols. Genghiz already kicked your ass. We will do it again.

                                    Several reports said that a truck blew up. Not sure if I believe that, looking at locations where the damage occurred. They seem to be spread out.
