U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced $100 million in new military aid to Ukraine during an unannounced visit to Kyiv on Monday, pledging long-term American support amid growing concerns about the sustainability of vital U.S. assistance, APA reports citing Reuters.
Austin announced the aid package after a day of meetings with Ukrainian officials, saying it included arms such as anti-tank weapons and air-defense interceptors.
The United States has provided more than $44 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since February 2022.
