The Biden Administration will send yet another aid package to Ukraine, totaling $250 million, the Department of Defense announced Tuesday.
Since the beginning of Russia’s invasion in February 2022, the new figure marks the 45th such package sent to Ukraine.
“Today, the department also announced an additional security assistance [package] to meet Ukraine’s critical security and defense needs,” Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said in a statement.
“The US will continue to work with its allies and partners to provide Ukraine with the capabilities to meet its immediate battlefield needs and longer-term security systems requirements,” Singh added.
The latest allocation will include:
- AIM-9M missiles for air defense
- Additional ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS)
- 155 mm and 105 mm artillery rounds
- Mine-clearing equipment
- Tube-launched, optically-tracked, wire-guided, or “TOW” missiles
- Javelin and other anti-armor systems and rockets
- Hydra-70 rockets
- Over 3 million rounds of small-arms ammunition
- Armored medical treatment vehicles and high-mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles, or
- Humvees, ambulances,
- Demolition munitions for obstacle-clearing
- Spare parts, maintenance, and other field equipment
As The Daily Fetched reported earlier this month, Biden asked Congress for another $10 billion Ukraine aid package.
Earlier this year, Biden said he would support Ukraine’s battle against Moscow “as long as it takes.”
Meanwhile, RINO Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said there is no “time limit” on American support for Ukraine.
McConnell told Politico that the “most important thing going on internationally right now is the Ukraine war.”
“So let me just tell you what the people who are actually elected to office and actually make the decisions about how long America is committed to this thing: Russia has to lose in Ukraine, and we can’t put a time limit on it,” he added,
The massive flow of US military aid to Ukraine has raised questions about objectives in the conflict.
With $75 billion already invested, the American taxpayer is left footing the bill as inflation rates and living costs soar at home.
The US has provided Ukraine with more than $75 billion in assistance since the war began, including financial, humanitarian, and military support.
