“It will surge in more capabilities to meet Ukraine’s evolving requirements. And we’ll deliver them at the speed of war,” Austin said.

The announcement comes at a high-risk moment for Ukrainian forces, who are advancing into Russia’s Kursk region even as Russian forces are threatening the eastern Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk.
