The USA will provide Ukraine with additional HIMARS mounts as part of the next package of military assistance. Coordinator for strategic communications at the US National Security Council at the White House John Kirby stated this during a briefing.

"We will continue to provide Ukraine with historic levels of security assistance. Later this week, the administration will announce the next package of weapons and equipment for Ukraine. It will include more HIMARS", - the official stated.

Kirby stressed that the Ukrainians are very effective in using the given MLRS to make a difference on the battlefield. Also, as part of the new assistance package, the AFU will receive artillery ammunition and missiles for MLRS.

Let us recall that earlier, Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov also stated that Ukraine needs 100 HIMARS MLRS for an effective counteroffensive.
