WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration has announced the U.S. will send Ukraine an undisclosed number of medium-range cluster bombs and an array of rockets, artillery and armored vehicles in a military aid package totaling about $375 million. And a U.S. official says the administration will notify Congress on Thursday of its intent to spend $5.5 billion in additional military assistance in the coming months. Wednesday’s announcement came as global leaders met at the U.N. General Assembly and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy used his appearance there to rally support. Zelenskyy will meet Thursday with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in Washington.
