The U.S. will send Ukraine nearly $3 billion in military aid in a massive new package that will, for the first time, include several dozen Bradley fighting vehicles, U.S. officials said Thursday.
It is aimed at getting as much to the Ukrainian forces as possible during the winter months, before spring sets in and an expected increase in fighting begins.An announcement is expected Friday, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because details of the package have not been publicly announced.
Also included in the aid package will be HUMVEES, Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles, or MRAPs, and a large amount of missiles and other ammunition, according to U.S. officials.
