Pentagon Says Accounting Error Will Allow U.S. to Send $3 Billion in Additional Arms to Ukraine
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Pentagon said Thursday an accounting error led it to overestimate
the value of arms shipments sent to Ukraine by the Biden administration
as part of a $44 billion military aid package approved by Congress last
year. The Pentagon said by correcting the error, it could send another
$3 billion worth of weapons to Ukraine.
