US to announce $200 million military aid to Ukraine

WOTLD, Aug 08 (YPA) – The United States will announce aid of new weapons for Ukraine worth $200 million on Tuesday, Reuters reported.

According to Reuters, the package is expected to include demining equipment, Javelin, TOW and AT4 anti-tank systems, guns and ammunition, Patriot and HIMARS missiles, and other capabilities.

At the same time, it is noted that the new tranche is coming after the Pentagon discovered accounting errors in calculating the Ukraine aid cost in the amount of $6.2 billion. Now this money has become an additional fund to support Ukraine until the moment when Congress approves a new large-scale financial package.
