State Dept. Announces More Military Assistance for Ukraine

The State Department last week announced what it called a "significant" new military assistance package for Ukraine, providing counter-unmanned aerial systems equipment and munitions, rocket systems munitions, Javelin and AT-4 anti-armor missiles and other weapons and equipment. The items will be provided under a drawdown from Department of Defense stocks. "We will deploy this new assistance as quickly as possible to bolster Ukraine’s defense of its territory and its people," the State Department said.
