EXCERPT:
KIRBY: "Today’s announcements going to include more ammunition for the high-mobility advanced rocket systems otherwise known as HIMARS, I know you’re all familiar with that, as well as ammunition for the 155 millimeter artillery systems, which have already been supplied to Ukraine and are in the field. This will be the seventeenth now time that the Biden administration has authorized security assistance package using presidential drawdown authority since President Biden took office, and it brings to more than $8 billion drawdown authority alone in material and security assistance for Ukraine just since the invasion began in late February."
