The latest arms package for Ukraine totals about $725 million and includes the second shipment of anti-personnel mines authorized by President Biden, amidst ongoing support amidst political uncertainty.
This package, the 71st Presidential Drawdown Authority, is the largest since April, comprising munitions like anti-tank and counter-drone systems that are critical in the fight against Russia.
