NEW YORK: The Pentagon will send more ammunition to Ukraine from its stockpiles, including Stinger and Patriot air-defence missiles, guided rockets for HIMARS launchers, and artillery ammunition, defence officials said Tuesday.
The package of aid, the 41st for Ukraine since August 2021, is worth approximately US$500 million and addresses specific needs Ukrainian troops have in their counteroffensive against Russian forces, such as equipment for clearing minefields that have stymied ground advances and more armoured Bradley and Stryker armoured vehicles.
