The United States is expected to provide another military aid package to Ukraine

This was reported by The Associated Press.

“The U.S. is expected to announce Tuesday it is sending an additional $150 million in critically needed munitions to Ukraine,” the media wrote, adding that the sustainable flow of U.S. munitions, drawn from existing stockpiles, is crucial for Ukraine to deter intensified Russian attacks.

Russia blamed the U. S. for killing Russian civilians after Ukraine had struck the occupied city of Sevastopol, targeting the Belbek military airfield. Russian authorities claim that the U.S. is responsible for providing ATACMS to Ukraine which it used for the attack. However, analysts suggest that the deaths of the civilians were caused by the work of Russian air defense systems.

Previously, U.S officials elaborated on its stance on Ukrainian strikes inside Russia and confirmed that Ukraine could conduct those not only when it comes to protection of the Kharkiv region. The aggressor uses territory close to Ukraine border to amass military personnel that later invades Ukraine, and the Sumy region was specifically mention in this context.
