I saw somewhere on the news that Putin canceled his planned visit to Turkey, fearing that the Turks would arrest him and send him to The Hague

It is said that those produced for Bangladesh were shipped to Ukraine.

I am not sure if it would be possible.
Wouldn't it require BD's permission?

Even though it has exactly BD Army's camo, we can confirm from the photo below it is in service with said Ukrainian artillery brigade.

Ukraine received Patriot systems / photo

However, the problem can be completely solved thanks to the transfer of F-16 fighters.

Patriot systems will help Ukraine in certain areas where the enemy is now using guided bombs from SU-35 , but the problem can be completely solved thanks to the transfer of F-16 fighters.

Yuriy Ignat, the speaker of the command of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, announced this on the air of the informational telethon.

"The result is that we already have a Patriot. And we actually have the entire range of Western weapons that our partners promised us. Well, in order for the puzzle to work out, it needs to be supplemented with F-16s. It is clear that both pilots and the whole of Ukraine in general," he said.

"The Patriot that came is a significant reinforcement.
We know that the complex has a significantly longer range than the S-300, and this will help us in certain areas where the enemy is now using, in particular, guided bombs from SU-35 aircraft.
We are waiting also SAMP / T, this is also a more long-range complex, and NASAMS, which was promised to us by Norwegian partners," Ignat added.

Any transfer would of course happen with Bangladesh's agreement.

UAF took positions on the left bank of the Kherson region, ISW / UNIAN claim

Military analysts have indicated for the first time that these territories can be controlled by Ukrainian troops.

The armed forces of Ukraine probably managed to enter the left (eastern) bank of the Kherson region. Earlier, details became known about why the Russian forces managed to capture the city of Kherson "with lightning speed" at the beginning of a full-scale invasion.

This is evidenced by geolocation footage provided by Russian "military correspondents" and bloggers on Saturday, April 22. Analysts of the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) came to this conclusion.

According to the photographs, the Armed Forces of Ukraine took up positions on the banks of the Dnieper north of Oleshki (about 7 km southwest of the administrative center of the region - the city of Kherson) and were able to advance to the northern outskirts of the settlement on the E97 highway, as well as to the west of Dacha (10 km to south of Kherson).

Girkin says that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are conducting reconnaissance in combat along the entire length of the front, but says that all attacks have been repulsed.
Due to the dirt on the roads, a large-scale offensive is impossible. At the moment, the offensive is only possible along the roads, so this offensive can be stopped by artillery and aircraft.
Girkin thinks that Ukraine's counteroffensive will take place between May 1-10, when the roads are dry.
To the viewer's question about whether Russian aviation will be able to stop the counteroffensive of Ukraine? The answer is that it may stop, but it may not. In the fall, he says in the Kherson region, the Ukrainian military tactical groups that had broken through, and possibly the size of a battalion, were defeated by Russian tactical aviation.
He also says that the head of Wagner, Prigozhin, admitted that Bakhmut is of no strategic importance. He mocks him, saying that he warned about this earlier in the fall, but he was called names. Now Prigozhin put a lot of assault infantry there.

Türkiye provided Ukraine with hundreds of armored vehicles and analogues of Himars, Roketsan. This is not advertised. These armored vehicles have mine protection. According to various sources, Türkiye handed over more than 200 of them to Ukraine.

the bakmut offensive has been a failure. We are in April and they have not been able to take it, now the Russians are nervous about the pending counter offensive that the Ukranian armed forces have been preparing for the past 5 months.

Honestly considering both armies respective performance, it would not surprise me if Ukraine's pending assault is a total success.

The regions the Russians will be forced to leave will yet again become of little value to the Russians, who have excuses pre heated and oven cooked ready to be deployed at a moments notice when it can be used to cover up grand failures.

The success of Ukraine May offensive will depend on the Russian air force. If Ukraine manage to contest the airspace to Russian aviation and limit its use around the battlefield like in Kherson and the RuAf continue to operate in a shrewd careful manner, there's a chance that ground manouver will be successful. However now its becoming clear that the VKS is re-arming their bomber fleet with more and more precision glide bombs. And because it glide way beyond the reach of many Ukraine's GBAD we'll be seeing more and more high altitude bombings by the RuAF. UkAF might not be in a position to challenge Russian bombers at high altitude due to the danger of AWACS + Su-35s and Russian long range AD.

Depending on luck and how the Russian air force operate the May offensive might be another Kherson or a modern day Ardennes/ Khafji.
