The United States is expected to announce a $150 million military aid package for Ukraine on Tuesday. The package will include critically needed munitions to help Ukraine fend off Russian attacks. This announcement comes as Russia accuses Ukraine of using U.S.-provided munitions to strike inside Russia or Russian-held territory. The aid will be provided under the presidential drawdown authority, which utilizes weapons, ammunition, and equipment from U.S. military stockpiles. The information was confirmed by two US officials and reported by Voice of America.
