The missiles in question are an older version of the ATACMS missile, which carries warheads containing hundreds of cluster bombs to kill infantry, the sources said.

Ukraine will receive ATACMS long-range missiles as part of a new US military assistance package. This was reported by Politico, citing sources, on Tuesday, March 12.

The cost of the new military aid package is said to be $300 million.

The package includes several anti-personnel missiles, or APAMs, an older version of the long-range ATACMS with a range of 100 miles (160 kilometers), an official said. edit.) and carrying a warhead containing hundreds of cluster bombs,” the report said.

The aid package also includes 155 mm artillery shells and guided missiles.

It is indicated that the Pentagon was able to take advantage of the savings from the previous army contract for weapons for Ukraine and that this package will be a temporary solution to supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“This is not an alternative route for additional aid,” the US Defense Department official said.

Earlier, Reuters reported that US authorities are preparing a package of military aid to Ukraine totaling $400 million, which could be the first in 2024.

As you know, the United States has not approved new aid to Ukraine for several months due to disagreements in Congress between Republicans and Democrats over border protection.

In February, the US Senate backed a package providing more than $60 billion for Ukraine – mainly for military aid. But the document was never considered in the House of Representatives because of Speaker Johnson’s refusal to put it to a vote.

Now congressmen are preparing an alternative bill. According to media reports, the vote in Congress could take place in April.
