The Department of Defense warned Congress this week that it is running low on funds meant to replace weapons the United States sent to Ukraine in recent months and has been forced to slow down on resupplying American troops.
Pentagon Comptroller Michael McCord told House and Senate leaders in a letter that there is $1.6 billion left of the $25.9 billion Congress provided to replenish U.S. military stocks that have been flowing to Ukraine. The weapons include millions of rounds of artillery, rockets, and missiles critical to Ukraine’s counteroffensive aimed at taking back territory gained by Russia in the war.
