Im #Donbass toben weiterhin schwere Gefechte. Beide Seiten reklamieren weitere Gebietsgewinne.
Ukr.Truppen erklärten, dass sie weiter bei #Charkiw vorrücken und einige Ortschaften einnehmen konnten.
Die entsprechende "Charkiw-Offensive" begann schon vor einigen Tagen.

🧵#Russia will annex Kherson obl without even fake referendum. Local puppet govern-t will address #Putin and RU will issue a decree. What does it mean? 1) RU doesn’t feel stable on occupied areas, they can’t afford even fake referendum as in 2014. No local support at all
2) #Ukraine’s army is fighting on the borders of #Kherson obl, and after #lendlease prospect for broader counterattack is more than real. 🇷🇺tries to declare this territories as Russian before that.
3) it changes nothing for plans of UA and West. Idea to fight up to liberation of entire territory will be even more important. 4) later it will be used to justify general mobilization in RU.

Чекаємо підписання ленд-лізу
Коротко: закон про ленд-ліз просто розв'язує руки Байдену. Раніше щодо кожного об'єкту допомоги міг мусив звертатися до Сенату та Конгресу. Тепер вони йому автоматично надали таке право. #лендліз #lendlease
Це не кредит - це безкоштовна допомога, але з розплатою. Розплата відбувається вкінці. Все, що вціліло - можна повернути назад. А можна віддати грішми та лишити собі

I was interested in the much talked about #lendlease #bill for #Ukraine that has been approved by the US senate and is scheduled for a vote by the House of Representatives tomorrow.

I was surprised that it is only three pages long. Let’s read it.

rules.house.gov/bill/117/s-3522
This is the version that was ‘engrossed in Senate’ and presented as materials to the House Committee on Rules on April 27.

FYI - I am not a US lawyer, so if any specialists have comments, please add them in the replies.
The main power set out in sec. 2(a)(1) provides that:
“the President may authorize the United States Government to lend or lease defence articles to the Government of Ukraine or governments of Eastern European countries impacted by the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine”
