President Biden announced Tuesday that the U.S. will deliver to Ukraine a $625 million military aid package that will include four advanced rocket systems that have helped the country turn the tide against Russia.
Mr. Biden unveiled the package during a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, according to a White House readout of the call.
The military package will include four High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, known as HIMARS, bringing the total number delivered so far to 20. Ukraine has used the rocket systems to strike bridges and other areas Moscow has used to supply its troops, enabling Ukrainian forces to gain ground in Russia-controlled regions.
