The US will transfer thousands of confiscated Iranian weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, which could help overcome some of the critical shortages facing the Ukrainian military, which is awaiting additional money and weapons from the US and its allies.

CNN reported this today, October 4, citing information received from US officials.
According to the publication’s sources, the US Central Command intends to announce such a decision this week.
It is noted that it is not yet clear what legal grounds the United States will use to facilitate the transfer of weapons, since the UN requires that seized weapons be destroyed or stored.
The Biden administration has been weighing for months how to legally send weapons stored at US Central Command facilities in the Middle East to the Ukrainians, the newspaper notes.
