US Senate overwhelmingly approves Ukraine aid

The US Senate has approved a $95 billion war aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden, concluding a half-year-long saga of delaying the aid by Congressional Republicans.

AP reports that the bill, which allocates $95 billion in war aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, passed the Senate with a decisive 79-18 vote late on 23 April (early morning of 24 April in Kyiv), following House approval on 20 April. President Biden, who collaborated with congressional leaders to secure support, announced in a statement immediately after the bill’s passage that he would sign it on 24 April and initiate the process of dispatching weapons to Ukraine, which is currently striving to maintain its front lines against Russia.
