The United States is preparing a new package of weapons for Ukraine for a billion dollars

The package is expected to be announced as early as Monday.

The next administration assistance package Biden in the security sector for Ukraine will amount to $1 billion, one of the largest at the moment, and will include ammunition for long-range weapons and armored medical transport vehicles.

This is reported by Reuters, citing three sources.

The package is expected to be announced as early as Monday and will add about $8.8 billion in aid the United States provided to Ukraine after Russia’s February 24 invasion.

Officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that President Joe Biden has yet to sign the next weapons package. They warned that the weapons packages could change in value and content before they were signed.

However, if signed in its current form, it would be valued at $1 billion and would include HIMARS munitions, NASAMS surface-to-air missile munitions, and up to 50 M113 armored medical vehicles.

Recall that President Zelensky thanked Biden for the allocation of military assistance to Ukraine in the amount of 550 million.
