For reference:
As reported, the White House announced another defense aid package for Ukraine on April 3. John Kirby, the National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications for the US, declared that a new military aid package for Ukraine might be proclaimed this week. He could not provide information on a definite date but remarked that the White House has been toiling "hard since the prior package" to prepare the new one, which will arrive shortly. He noted that the latest batch of aid would match the weapons and ammunition recently supplied to Ukraine's army. Additionally, Kirby referred to the condition of the frontlines, forecasting that a new surge of combat is to be expected with better weather.
Last week, the American agency Reuters, citing sources in the administration, reported on preparing a new package of defense support for Ukraine in the amount of 2.6 billion US dollars.
