A $275 million military aid package unveiled by the Biden administration on Friday will provide Ukraine with rockets, artillery rounds and other “urgently needed” weaponry and equipment to hold off Russian advances in the war-torn country’s northeast.

The package is the fifth tranche of aid for Kyiv since Congress approved $60 billion in additional funding last month.

It includes ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS); 155mm and 105mm artillery rounds; Tube-Launched, Optically-Tracked, Wire-Guided (TOW) missiles; Javelin and AT-4 anti-armor systems; precision aerial munitions; demolitions munitions; and anti-armor mines, among other equipment.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken described the firepower heading Kyiv’s way as “significant” and “urgently needed” to defend against a Russian offensive near Ukraine’s second-largest city, Kharkiv.

After Biden said we are going to lose the war in the Ukraine anyway, are their any inbeciles left that want to pour money down Bidens rat hole?  Maybe abandon more Americans there to like Afghanistan?
