updates: US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin hosted a virtual session on Ukraine to address the urgent need for ammunition and artillery in Kyiv. The Pentagon has been unable to send weapons and ammunition to Ukraine since December due to a lack of funds. Austin emphasized the importance of resourcing Ukraine's urgent needs, including artillery, ammunition, and air defense missiles. However, it remains uncertain when Congress will provide additional funds for regular shipments of ammunition to Ukraine. The Senate has passed a multibillion-dollar war funding package, but it could take weeks or months for the legislation to reach President Joe Biden's desk. The Pentagon argues that the funding package is not only crucial for Ukraine but also beneficial for the US economy. The legislation includes funding for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and humanitarian assistance for conflict zones globally. US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin has urged the Senate to pass the national security bill immediately, emphasizing the need to invest in America's national security and bolster deterrence in the Indo-Pacific region. Austin applauded the Senate's passage of the national-security supplemental, which aims to advance the US's core security interests and support its allies and partners worldwide. The bipartisan legislation includes provisions for military aid to Ukraine to defend against Russian attacks and aid to Israel in countering Hamas terror attacks. It also allocates additional resources to the US Central Command to protect against Iranian-backed militias and safeguard international commerce in the Red Sea from Houthi attacks. The bill aims to strengthen domestic industries and create more American jobs. The top Ukrainian defense officials have warned that they no longer have sufficient ammunition to hold off Russian forces. Austin called on Congress to pass a full-year appropriation to fund the Defense Department in line with the annual defense bill. Austin emphasizes the urgent need for the supplement in Ukraine and calls upon Congress to pass a full-year appropriation. He states that failure to fund the Defense Department would have serious consequences for America's security, economy, global standing, and democracy. Austin reiterates the importance of American leadership in deterring aggression and maintaining stability. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, a day after his latest hospital release, hosted a virtual session on Ukraine to help resource urgently needed ammunition and artillery for Kyiv. Austin, who is recovering from complications from his December surgery to treat prostate cancer, conducted the session from his home. The Pentagon has been out of funds to send weapons and ammunition to Ukraine since December, and European allies have continued to send some support. Austin stated that the contact group would work on resourcing Ukraine's most critical near-term needs, including its urgent need for more artillery, ammunition, and air defense missiles. The fate of additional funds from Congress to restart regular shipments of ammunition to Ukraine is uncertain.
