WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is preparing to send Ukraine an additional $725 million in military assistance. It includes counter-drone systems and munitions for its High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, which could indicate more of the longer range missiles are headed to the battlefield. It was unclear whether the munitions for the HIMARS are the coveted ATACMS — the Army Tactical Missile System. But Ukraine has been pressing for more of the longer-range missiles to strike additional targets inside Russia. The package announced Monday also includes more of the anti-personnel land mines that Ukraine is counting on to slow Russian and North Korean ground forces in the Kursk region.
