Ukrainian servicemen monitor the situation along the front via drones in the direction of Kreminna, Ukraine as Russia-Ukraine war continues on 31 March 2024.
Defense analysts argue that while the funding could help breathe new life and morale into Ukraine's beleaguered military campaign, aid and supplies must be sent to Ukraine immediately.
"It's unlikely this will create immediate parity with the Russian volume of fire, but it will help close the gap," Savill said.
They point out that further U.S. aid is not guaranteed, particularly given the uncertain outcome of the presidential election later this year.
One top U.S. general told Congress earlier in April that Russia was firing five artillery shells for every one fired by Ukrainian forces, and that this disparity could double in the coming weeks.
