The US will send $300m (£234m) in military weapons to Ukraine, including ammunition, rockets and anti-aircraft missiles, the White House has said.
The surprise announcement comes as a bill in Congress to send further aid to Ukraine stalls amid partisan debate.
The US shipment, the first in nearly three months, is intended to prevent Ukraine from losing ground to Russia.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said this aid “is nowhere near enough to meet Ukraine’s battlefield needs”.
“This ammunition will keep Ukraine’s guns firing for a period, but only a short period,” Mr Sullivan told reporters on Tuesday, adding that “it will not prevent Ukraine from running out of ammunition.”
This is the best summary I could come up with:

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said this aid “is nowhere near enough to meet Ukraine’s battlefield needs”.
The White House has been appealing to Congress for months to pass a budget that sends aid to Ukraine, as well as Israel and Taiwan.
Mr Johnson, an ally of Donald Trump, has said the House will vote on its own aid bill, but only after Congress passes a budget that overhauls the US immigration system.
Following the meeting, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk told reporters that he hopes Mr Johnson “is already aware that, on his individual decision, depends the fate of millions of people”.

Yep remember all that showmanship about how the Republicans in Congress are evil and preventing aid. Well, then white house just decided to send it anyway, as if that wasn’t always an option…
You guys are trying so hard to make Biden look bad at the benefit of making Trump look good and it doesn’t even compare. Trump is a piece of shit and anyone who supports him needs to realize they are being conned. He is a con artist first. You are a rube. Gullible. Foolish. If you believe he is telling you the truth then you have been tricked. Trump wants to dismantle all aid to any country threatened by Russia, Iran, North Korea and anyone else that might have actually donated some significant amount of “Foreign Aid” to his campaign funds and legal funds. The man is nearly half a billion in the hole because of the recent court cases against him. You really expect him to not take money from literally anyone at this point to pay those legal fees? Seriously? The man is a walking security risk with such a large fine on his hands. He is too hot to elect. He is one step short of being a fucking felon and you want to conflate him as being somehow better than Biden? Fuck all the way off dude.
I’m always impressed at how technology has evolved enough to allow people as retarded as you to manage navigating the internet to type braindead shit like this
Lung is dumb as fuck, but can you not use ‘retarded’ as a slur in the year of our lord 2024??
By not obsessing about maybe offending people who are definitely not reading my comment.
Only 300m to fight an invader but 14b to butcher children and civilians in general? Wow Biden, much nice, you’re definitely the better option. Edit: I’m definitely not pro-Trump, I’m just one of many, many fed up people who hoped for something other than a Biden-Trump rematch. But I guess fanatics gonna be fanatics.
Yeah, because everyone who hates biden must love trump.
This is how tribalism works, folks. Try to rise above it.
Stick an extra zero on that number and it might actually be enough.
Partisan Debate?
You mean the GOP sabotaging Democracy again?
