White House To Announce An Additional $800 Million In Military Aid To Ukraine

Politico: U.S. to announce $800M weapons package for Ukraine  

The tranche comes just days before Ukraine’s independence day on Aug. 24, which one DoD official suggested could also bring a fresh American show of support. 

The U.S. will announce a new military aid package for Ukraine on Friday, two people familiar with the announcement told POLITICO, with another $800 million in weapons and ammunition. 

A third person said the next package will include Excalibur precision-guided munitions, which would further help Ukraine hit far-away Russian targets during the war’s artillery-heavy phase.
