This new wave of military aid includes High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) rounds, anti-tank mines, and advanced missiles. The $325 million brings the total aid to Ukraine up to $35.4 billion since the Russians invaded early last year.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><strong>From Reuters:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;This security assistance package includes more ammunition for U.S.-provided HIMARS and artillery rounds, as well as anti-armor systems, small arms, logistics support vehicles, and maintenance support essential to strengthening Ukraine&#8217;s defenders on the battlefield,&#8221; U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>HIMARS is a missile launcher mounted on a truck that can fire multiple guided missiles in quick succession. Missiles supplied to Ukraine have a range of up to 50 miles (80 km) and Ukrainian forces have had great success using them to target Russian positions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Russia could end its war today. Until Russia does, the United States and our allies and partners will stand united with Ukraine for as long as it takes,&#8221; said Blinken.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the HIMARS ammunition, the package includes artillery rounds; tube-launched, optically-tracked, wire-guided (TOW) missiles; anti-tank mines; port and harbor security equipment, and over 9 million rounds of small-arms ammunition, a Statement Department spokesperson said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Reuters has additional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/us-announces-325-million-military-aid-package-ukraine-2023-04-19\/\">information<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team Joe Biden announced $325 million worth of military aid for Ukraine as it continues to &hellip; <a title=\"Ukraine to receive $325 million in military aid, includes HIMARS rounds\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=140260\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Ukraine to receive $325 million in military aid, includes HIMARS rounds<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":661,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[384,640],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-140260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-russia","category-ukraine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/661"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=140260"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140260\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=140260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=140260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=140260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
