US will announce $275 million more in artillery and ammunition for Ukraine, officials say

Associated Press  

WASHINGTON — The United States is expected to announce an additional $275 million in military aid for Ukraine on Friday as Kyiv struggles to hold off advances by Russian troops in the Kharkiv region, two U.S. officials say. This will be the fourth installment of military aid for Ukraine since Congress passed a long-delayed foreign aid bill late last month and comes as the Biden administration has pledged to keep weapons flowing regularly and to get them to the front lines as quickly as possible. In the month since President Joe Biden signed the $95 billion foreign aid package, which included about $61 billion for Ukraine, the U.S. has announced and started to send almost $1.7 billion in weapons pulled from Pentagon stockpiles. AP AUDIO: US will announce $275 million more in artillery and ammunition for Ukraine, officials say AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports two U.S. officials say the Biden administration will announce more military aid for Ukraine amid Russia’s new onslaught in Kharkiv.
