Rocky 8.10 AMI's missing from AWS eu-west-1 region

It looks like the Rocky 8 AMIs are missing from AWS, at least in the eu-west-1 (Ireland region).

We can see the 9 and 10 AMIs.

Have they been removed/disabled by accident?

Looks like the 8.10 AMI has hit it’s deprecation expiration date, seeing this in all regions:

Sorry for the delayed response. We’re putting together new AMIs right now for Rocky 8. Hopefully we’ll have these sorted sometime next week.
