In Russia, the Red army has
seized the initiative on the
southern approaches to Lwow
to capture a height which the
Russian high command says is
of great importance. The thrust
enlarged the springboard from
which the Russians are expect-
ed to launch a summer offen-
sive through Poland.
Radio Moscow says Russian
warplanes also have sunk three
German minesweepers and two
patrol cutters In the Gulf of Fin-
land
