The U.S. Department of Defense has already started the process of delivering to Ukraine the capabilities allocated the day before in the latest defense assistance package, and expects that the first batches, including those of artillery rounds, will arrive in the near future, Ukrinform reports.
This was stated by Pentagon spokesman General Patrick Ryder, Ukrinform's own correspondent reports.
"We have already started the process to move some of the weapons, ammunition, and equipment, which will be there (in Ukraine - ed.) within days, if not sooner," said the DOD spokesman.
He clarified that some weapons would be delivered urgently, while the shipment of other capabilities will take a bit longer.
"But when it comes to essential capabilities, like ammunition, we are already moving out to make those deliveries," the general clarified.
