Russia has invaded its neighbor, Ukraine, despite strong international condemnation and severe sanctions from the West. Here are the latest developments.
Soldiers from Ukraine have been training on the weapon system at Fort Sill since January and will soon deploy to Ukraine with a Patriot missile battery.
Latest package includes large amounts of ammunition, such as rockets for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, fuel tanker trucks and riverine boats.
The Pentagon is opting to keep funding Ukraine with emergency spending bills despite previous testimony it was working to integrate it in the base budget.
“We don’t want to give the Russians certainty about when something’s going to arrive, but efforts are underway to do it as quickly as possible,” Bush said.
The Pentagon announced it would send more drones to Ukraine to aid its fight against Russia on the first anniversary of Russia’s invasion of the invasion.
President Joe Biden, in Poland after his lightning trip to Ukraine, is declaring there are “hard and bitter days ahead” in fighting off Russia's invasion.
