The new aid package includes patrol boats, additional ammunition for the High Mobility Missile-Rocket System, 155mm and 105mm artillery shells, and other weapons.
Two US officials revealed on September 20 that the US is preparing a $375 million military aid package for Ukraine, breaking a months-long trend of providing smaller aid packages to Kiev to serve military operations against Russia.
The new aid package comes at a pivotal moment in the war, as Russia attacks Ukraine's energy grid ahead of the coming winter.
The aid package - expected to be announced next week - includes patrol boats, additional ammunition for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), 155mm and 105mm artillery shells, spare parts and other weapons, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The type of weapons and the size of the aid package could change in the coming days, before being signed by the US President.
The Pentagon announced in April this year that it would send $1 billion worth of weapons and equipment directly from its stockpile to Kiev after the US Congress approved an additional funding package for Ukraine.
