Zelensky: US arms deliveries to Ukraine have resumed

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed that the United States has resumed arms deliveries to Ukraine, following a temporary pause in shipments. The move comes amidst a series of escalating Russian attacks, including a significant drone and missile strike on Kyiv on July 10, which resulted in two deaths and 16 injuries [1].

The renewed support from the United States includes the delivery of 155 mm artillery rounds and GMLRS guided rocket munitions, according to Reuters and the Associated Press [2]. The decision to resume deliveries was made after a review of U.S. stockpiles and follows a period of tension between the Trump administration and Ukrainian officials [3].

The U.S. President Donald Trump announced the resumption of weapons shipments, citing the need to help Ukraine defend itself against the ongoing Russian onslaught [3]. The Pentagon had previously paused the delivery of certain weapons, including Patriot air defense missiles and precision-guided munitions, due to low stockpiles [3].

The renewed arms deliveries are seen as a critical boost for Ukraine's defense capabilities, as it continues to face intense Russian aerial attacks. The U.S. has been the single largest donor of military aid to Ukraine since the start of the conflict in 2022 [3].
