Radars, ammunition and anti-tank missiles: US to announce $2.6 billion aid package for Ukraine

According to Reuters, three U.S. officials told the agency that on Monday Washington would announce a new $2.6 billion package of U.S. military aid to Ukraine.

It is noted that it will include air defense radars, ammunition, and anti-tank missiles.

Officials also said that the list would be finalized throughout the weekend, so the cost of the aid package and its contents may change.

"Also slated for inclusion were precision aerial munitions, bridging equipment Ukraine would use to assault Russian positions, recovery vehicles to help disabled heavy equipment like tanks and additional rounds for NASAMS air defenses that the U.S. and allies have given to Kyiv," the journalists said.

• The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) reported that thanks to military assistance from the United States and European countries, Ukraine became the third largest importer of weapons in the world after Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022.
