Pentagon Failed to Track Over $1B in Military Equipment to Ukraine
------------------------------------------------------------------

The Pentagon's inspector general says the agency has failed to track
some $1 billion in military equipment provided to Ukraine for its fight
against Russia's invasion. The weapons in question include Javelins,
Stinger missiles, night-vision devices and one-way attack drones. This
comes as the White House said Thursday U.S. support to Ukraine "has now
ground to a halt" amid stalled negotiations over a new funding package
that congressional Republicans are demanding be conditioned on further
militarizing the U.S.-Mexico border.
