The Biden Administration has announced an additional $275 million in security assistance for Ukraine. This package includes HIMARS ammunition, TOW missiles, Javelins, and various artillery and mortar rounds. The move comes as part of a broader surge in support for Ukraine that President Joe Biden first announced in September. The decision has drawn criticism from Russia, which accuses Biden of prolonging the conflict in Ukraine. The Biden administration also recently authorized the use of ATACMS missiles by Kiev and approved anti-personnel land mines, further intensifying the conflict.
