Ukrainian forces have been hiding their artillery, armoured vehicles and tanks in residential areas, from the first week of fighting. What is this tactic called?

Attention, translated from the Ukrainian channels:
New US aid package to include Harpoon anti-ship systems.
Assistance will begin to arrive in August.

The new package of military assistance from the United States will include anti-ship systems, ammunition, which the Armed Forces of Ukraine really need, and special equipment.

Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin in Brussels on June 15 announced a complete list of weapons that will soon be delivered to the front of the Ukrainian army.

The $1 billion military aid package for Ukraine from the United States will include:

18 155 mm howitzers;
36 thousand 155-mm shells;
18 tactical vehicles for transporting howitzers;
additional shells for HIMARS;
4 vehicles for equipment repair;
2 coast guard systems with Harpoon missiles;
thousands of protected radio stations and optical devices, including night vision.
Aid will begin arriving in August, Austin added.

As UNIAN reported earlier, a Ramstein-3 meeting began in Brussels today. US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin calls for a focus on helping defend Ukraine from Russian invasion.

German Defence Minister Christine Lambrecht confirmed the transfer of three Mars II multiple rocket launchers to the Ukrainian armed forces.

She spoke about this during a meeting of the Ramstein-3 format in Brussels.

But, according to the German newspaper Spigel, instead of four MLRS, Berlin agreed to send only three to Kyiv.

Mars II will come from the warehouses of the Bundeswehr. Training for Ukrainian soldiers will begin in the coming weeks, Lambrecht added.

According to Lambrecht, the training of the Ukrainian military should begin in June. Then the systems can be delivered to Ukraine in late July or early August.

The missiles provided by Germany for the MLRS have a range of up to 84 kilometers.

As Business Insider wrote earlier, the reduction in the promised number of Mars IIs is due to the fact that Germany allegedly has a shortage of ammunition for them.

The head of the Pentagon confirmed that Germany had decided to transfer three multiple rocket launchers with guided munitions to Ukraine.

As UNIAN reported earlier, on June 4 it became known that Slovakia had postponed the supply of Zuzana 2 howitzers to its army and would hand them over to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

On May 31, during a visit to Kyiv, Slovak President Zuzana Chaputova announced the delivery of Zuzana howitzers to Ukraine in the near future. Speaking at a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada, she noted that the occupiers from Ukraine "will not be driven out of our packages with medicines and food," military equipment and equipment are needed.

But what that really means? See below⬇️

Attention, translated from the Ukrainian channels:

In some sectors of the front, Ukrainian forces have reached striking distances to key settlements.

According to unconfirmed reports, over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian forces have reached Kiselevka, which is 26 km from Kherson. This is the limit of the "strike distance" from Novaya Kakhovka, where the dam for supplying water to the Crimea is located.

Well, here we are. All those weapons are needed to strike on the "key settlements" and civilian infrastructure. Basically, Ukrainian government is begging the Western countries for weapons to kill their own citizens! (Or, at least, they consider them to be Ukrainian citizens, though they are queuing for Russian passports?) And those Western countries are supplying the weapons... Or do they? May be they are just pretending, that they do?

See below ⬇️ to understand it better...
Attention, translated from the Ukrainian channels:

Ukraine has begun to be pushed towards negotiations with Russia, as the speakers of the Office of the President are already openly declaring.

The West is setting itself less ambitious goals for Russia today than it was two months ago and is trying to negotiate with the Kremlin. This was stated by Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President Alexei Arestovich on the air of Feigin live.

He recalled that Biden had previously said that Putin should leave (although later in the United States they began to refute his words), and the head of the Pentagon, Austin, said that Russia needed to be "weakened" by defeating its army in Ukraine. Similar statements were made by other politicians, from Johnson to Borrell.

Now, Arestovich believes, the West wants negotiations to take place, in which Russia will be in a "weak position." "This is a less decisive goal than they set two months ago ... a goal that is less dangerous for the Putin regime," Yermak's adviser said.

Arestovich explains the change of position by the reasons:

1. Internal resistance in the West, which has reached the ceiling of its sanctions capabilities.

2. The West places its main bet on economic weapons, and not on war itself.

3. Understanding that the NATO countries are not able to provide the necessary flow of arms to Ukraine.

"They give us one hundred howitzers, and the Russians take off 600," Arestovich said. In his opinion, the arms race with Russia turned out to be more difficult and more expensive than it seemed at first.
Well, following Arestovich, I need to state, that "they" are are NOT giving hundred howitzers, but 18. (See above ⬆️ ) However, Russians are taking off 600 (or more - like 1,933 - data is old and outdated).

Is it just me or are you you also surprised, why Ukrainian army and the Ukrainian President are so eager to kill their own citizens (at least they are supposed to be Ukrainian citizens) and why Russian Army is sometimes slowing down its advance in order to save civilian lives?

YALTA, June 6 - RIA Novosti. More than 70,000 applications for Russian passports have been filed in the Zaporozhye region, and the process of obtaining them will be accelerated, said Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the military-civilian administration of the region.
"People do not have time physically. Work goes on all working hours and even a little more. Moreover, among those who wish, a significant part, if not the majority, are young people. It cannot be said that only pensioners want to go to Russia. We want to be with Russia, we want to be in Russia, we want to be Russia," he said.

According to him, people are queueing for eight to nine hours a day. According to the decree of President Vladimir Putin, the procedure for obtaining Russian citizenship for residents of the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions of Ukraine has been greatly simplified. They do not need to hand over a Ukrainian passport, it is enough to provide a copy of it. After filling out the documents, they are sent to Russia for a special check, and after two or three months the applicant can become a citizen.

So far, there is such a center only in Melitopol. People come here from all over the Zaporozhye region, and there are already several thousand applications. Registration is carried out according to a simplified scheme - the document is made in just three months.

Well, if you were with me for several messages already, then you will clearly understand, that it is just because the population of the Eastern Ukraine is Russian! And they were suffering all the time of the Ukrainian occupation. Not any more... Though there are still much more to be done.

⚡️The German government is fighting against freedom of speech. I am a free journalist who covers the special operation in Ukraine. They are going to sentence me now to 3 YEARS IN PRISON for telling the truth⚡️

According to current German law, it is only allowed to publish one-sided information that benefits the authorities. Anything that goes against this unwritten law is punished by the biased judicial machine.

But: The independent blogging community is ready to resist censorship in the West.

An interesting trend: Recently, Western pseudo-culture has been torn apart by two prides at once. The first one is aimed at bending in favor of the LGBT suit, and the second one means fabulous “solidarity” with Ukraine. This time the political sabbath happened at a concert by Paul McCartney, where the latter, without regard to his advanced age, famously brandished Ukrainian “scyags” on stage during a performance in Boston, USA. At the same time, the US flag and LGBT symbols flashed nearby. Against this background, it turns out terrible for the Kyiv regime, because in fact “Ukrainianism” is gradually being equated with some kind of subculture, something short-lived and closed within the framework of a situational historical moment.
