US to announce more than €250m more in military aid for Ukraine – officials

The package reportedly includes artillery rocket systems and artillery rounds.

The United States is expected to announce an additional $275m (€253m) in military aid for Ukraine as Kyiv struggles to hold off advances by Russian troops in the Kharkiv region, two US officials have said.

This will be the fourth instalment of military aid for Ukraine since Congress passed a long-delayed foreign aid bill late last month and comes as the Biden administration has pledged to keep weapons flowing regularly and to get them to the front lines as quickly as possible.
