The White House announced on Dec. 2 a new $725 million military aid package for Ukraine as President Joe Biden seeks to strengthen Kyiv’s position in the Russian war before his presidency ends in January.

The package will include ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, Stinger missiles, artillery shells, drones, landmines, and other military equipment, according to Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
