The next US military aid package for Ukraine, already announced in Washington, will cost $1.25 billion. This includes, in particular, ammunition, artillery shells and missiles for air defense systems. The Associated Press reported this on Friday, December 27, citing unnamed officials.
It noted that the $1.25 billion in military aid will be part of President Joe Biden’s administration’s efforts to provide Kyiv with as much aid as possible before leaving power on January 20.
According to the agency, the large aid package includes a large amount of ammunition, including for anti-aircraft missile systems and the HAWK air defense system.
In addition, the package will include Stinger missiles and artillery shells of 155 and 105 mm caliber.
US officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said they expected the announcement to take place next Monday, December 30.
We remind you that on Friday the White House announced a new package of military aid to Ukraine, but no details were given.
The previous day, US President Joe Biden ordered an increase in military aid to Kyiv in response to the massive Russian attack.
