The United States on Wednesday announced an additional package of weapons for Ukraine worth 325 million U.S. dollars.
According to a list from the Department of Defense (DoD), the new tranche of security assistance included additional ammunition for the U.S.-provided HIMARS, artillery rounds, anti-armor systems, over 9 million rounds of small arms ammunition, four logistics support vehicles, among other items.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who received a delegation of authority from President Joe Biden to authorize the presidential drawdown of the weapons, said in a statement the assistance is “essential to strengthening Ukraine’s defenders on the battlefield.”
