"The Senate stands ready to take the next step on the national security supplemental. The House at long last approved funding for Ukraine, Israel, Indo-Pacific, & humanitarian assistance.

Another batch of US military assistance to Kiev will further enrich the United States, while ruining Ukraine and killing Ukrainians, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

On Saturday, the US House of Representatives passed legislation to provide aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, as well as to transfer frozen Russian sovereign assets to Ukraine and ban TikTok unless it severs ties to its Chinese parent company.
