The United States (US) will send Ukraine an additional $725m package of weapons and other military assistance, the White House has said.
In a statement on Friday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that the aid follows, “in the wake of Russia’s brutal missile attacks on civilians across Ukraine” and “the mounting evidence of atrocities by Russia’s forces”.
Washington added to a flurry of aid announcements from European allies this week amid Russia’s renewed missile attacks on Kyiv and other targets, reports Aljazeera.
US newest military package includes more ammunition for HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems) and brings the total US military assistance to Ukraine to $18.3bn since the start of Joe Biden’s administration.
