"Representatives of Ukraine and the US conducted the first joint audit of weapons supplied by American partners," the Ukrainian ministry said on social media.
This comes more than a week after the US Defense Department's Office of Inspector General concluded in an audit report that the Pentagon had failed to properly track more than $1 billion in weapons sent to Ukraine. The military auditor said it remained unclear whether any arms had been stolen or otherwise "diverted."
