Yeah, I also hope this war will end soon and Ukrainians will live peacefully in their motherland. Though they will need to rebuild so much territory
It seems after a long waiting something is now finally moving on politically and financially helping Ukraine to fight the Russian invasion.April 22, 2024
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian and Western leaders on Sunday welcomed a desperately needed aid package passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, as the Kremlin warned that passage of the bill would “further ruin” Ukraine and cause more deaths.
Ukrainian leaders and analysts say the long-awaited $61 billion military aid package — including $13.8 billion for Ukraine to buy weapons — will help slow Russia’s incremental advances in the war's third year — but that more will likely be needed for Kyiv to regain the offensive.
The House swiftly approved $95 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other U.S. allies in a rare Saturday session as Democrats and Republicans banded together after months of hard-right resistance over renewed American support for repelling Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who had warned that his country would lose the war without U.S. funding, said that he was grateful for the decision of U.S. lawmakers.
A Russian salvage ship, the Kommuna, caught fire in the port of the temporarily occupied city of Sevastopol, Crimea, due to an operation by the Ukrainian Navy on 21 April.
This event occurred with the direct involvement of the Ukrainian Navy. The type of damage caused to the ship is being established, but early reports indicate that the ship is not fit to perform missions.
...the vessel was not a warship but, despite its age, it had been servicing the Russian Black Sea Fleet and was in working order.
The Russians had been using the Kommuna to survey the location where the Moskva – the flagship of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet – sank.
Russian media and Telegram channels reported explosions in the city of Sevastopol in Russian-occupied Crimea on the morning of 21 April.
The Russians later stated that a ship had been attacked by a missile.
There were also reports of a blaze on the Kommuna.
Russian open sources say the Kommuna is a support sea vessel of the Russian Navy, a submarine rescue ship.

Not really sure what you mean with that - a large part of the US-borders do not need protection, especially those towards Canada from Alaska and from Northern part of the USA.publicduende wrote: ↑April 22nd, 2024, 6:37 amThis is happening, ironically, without the US having allocated a single dollar of their budget to protect their own borders.
