The Biden administration is planning to approve another package of military aid to Ukraine worth $400 million, Politico reported on Friday. The decision should be announced later today. The aid will include Patriot missiles, Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, Bradley fighting vehicles, MRAPs, Javelin anti-armor systems and other munitions, according to the report.
Earlier today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed Russia is staging an offensive in the Kharkiv region, adding that a "fierce battle" is ongoing. Meanwhile, Ukrainian Ground Forces commander Oleksandr Pavlyuk said Ukraine is approaching a "critical phase" of the war. "Russia knows that if we get enough weapons within a month or two, the situation can turn against them," he told the Economist.
