US announces additional military assistance for Ukraine

This is stated on the official website of the U.S. Department of State.

According to the statement, the package provides up to $200 million of arms and equipment under previously directed drawdowns for Ukraine. Capabilities provided in today’s package include:

• air defense munitions, 
• air defense system components,
• additional munitions for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, 
• artillery ammunition of 155 mm and 105 mm caliber,
• High-speed Anti-Radiation Missile missiles, 
• anti-armor munitions, 
• small arms ammunition, 
• a demolitions package, 
• HESCO barriers,
• spare parts, 
• ancillary equipment,  
• services, training, and transportation.

Antony Blinken, Secretary of State, noted that the United States and the coalition of more than 50 countries that have been assembled continue to provide critical support for Ukraine’s forces. However, unless Congress takes action to pass additional aid, this will be one of the last security assistance packages the U.S. will be able to provide Ukraine.

“We continue to urge Congress to advance our national security interests by helping Ukraine defend itself and secure its future – a future in which its people rebuild and live safely in a resilient and thriving democracy,” Antony Blinken added.
