US lawmakers approve aid to Ukraine and Israel after months of delay

Funding comes after Kyiv was forced to ration munitions in the face of Russian advances

The US House of Representatives has approved over $60bn in military aid for Ukraine in its fight against Russia, in a major breakthrough after months of inaction on Capitol Hill.

The Ukraine aid was part of a $95bn package of national security bills that also includes $26bn for Israel and $8bn for the Indo-Pacific region, as well as a bill that could result in TikTok being banned from US app stores.

The Ukraine bill passed the House on Saturday afternoon with 311 to 112, and 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans voting in favour. No Democrats voted against the aid package, while 112 Republicans voted against. Many Democratic lawmakers cheered and waved Ukrainian flags on the House floor as the result was announced.
