BRUSSELS—The Pentagon announced a new batch of weaponry and other materiel for Ukraine’s effort to fight off Russia’s invasion, amid rising obstacles in Washington to future military and financial support.
The package, valued at about $200 million, was announced by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin ahead of a meeting with allies here Wednesday. Longer-term decisions over military support for Ukraine are on hold in Washington, where the House is without a speaker and Republicans are split over extending funding.
The U.S. has also pledged to provide arms to Israel for its growing military response to the attack by Hamas militants on Saturday, threatening to stretch the U.S.’s attention and resources.
