US Approves 8M Military Aid For Ukraine's Hawk Missiles

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin testifies before Senate Committee on Armed Services during a hearing on Department of Defense Budget Request for Fiscal Year 2025 and the Future Years Defense Program

The State Department has approved an emergency $138 million foreign military sales package for Ukraine to provide critical repairs and spare parts for Kyiv’s Hawk missile systems. This decision was made in response to Ukraine's urgent need for maintenance support to ensure the missile system remains operational.

Last month, the Pentagon announced a smaller round of $300 million in munitions support for Ukraine, utilizing contract savings to offset the costs. Both the State and Defense Departments have been exploring avenues to continue providing support to Ukraine while a $60 billion aid package for the country remains stalled in Congress.
