The United States of America is preparing to announce the provision of a new $ 275 million military assistance package to Ukraine. This announcement is expected on Friday, which will be another step in supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.
The package contains HIMARS systems, 155 mm and 105 mm artillery shells. Other details of new military assistance are not reported.
This package of US assistance will be the fourth in the case since in late April the US Congress has approved the long -awaited law on foreign funding of Ukraine and allies.
In addition, Washington announced $ 6 billion in the scope of Ukraine's security assistance to pay long -term contracts with the US defense industry.
In total, since the beginning of the full -scale invasion of Russia in Ukraine in February 2022, the United States provided Kiev military assistance worth almost $ 51 billion.
In the United States, it was hoped that the new US military assistance, unlocked after the Congress's decision, will help the Armed Forces of Ukraine eventually regain the initiative on the battlefield , but the large -scale Ukrainian offensive is unlikely in the near future.
