When will US weapons package reach Ukraine?

A short time ago, we brought you a report from Russia detailing that defence minister Sergei Shoigu had ordered new weapons for Moscow. 

But what about weapons for Kyiv? 

On the Ukrainian side, a massive US military assistance package will soon be felt on the battlefield. 

On Monday, the White House confirmed that security assistance deliveries were taking place. 

“The aid into Ukraine is ongoing. They have been receiving that security assistance,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said. 

“I want to be very careful, because there is operational security,” she noted, “but we hope that the aid will get to the frontlines soon so that Ukraine can continue to defend itself.”

The bill, worth some $60bn in support for Ukraine, was finally signed into law on 24 April after months of debate in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.
