The United States plans to announce as soon as June 27 a new military aid package for Ukraine worth up to $500 million, keeping up U.S. resolve to help Ukraine against Russia as Moscow deals with an abortive mutiny by some of its soldiers. The package will include ground vehicles as Ukraine presses its counteroffensive, two U.S. officials quoted by Reuters said, though they added the package was still being finalized and could change. The security assistance package would be the 41st approved by the United States for Ukraine since the Russian invasion, for a total of more than $40 billion.
