The United States announced this Saturday (7) a new military aid package worth US$988 million (more than R$6 billion, at current prices) for Ukraine, at a time when Washington is accelerating support for Kiev before the inauguration. of President-elect Donald Trump.

The new package includes drones, ammunition for Himars precision rocket launchers, equipment and parts for artillery systems, tanks and armored vehicles, the Pentagon said in a statement.

The aid will be funded through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, under which military equipment is purchased from the defense industry or partners rather than being drawn from U.S. stockpiles, meaning it will not immediately reach the battlefield. .
