International Support for Ukraine's Military Strengthens with New Aid and Training Programs.

The US will begin training Ukrainian forces on how to operate Abrams tanks next month, with 31 tanks being sent to Germany for a 10-week training course. The tanks are a long-awaited capability for Ukraine, which has been battling Russia for more than a year. In addition to tanks being provided by the US, Ukraine will also be receiving German Leopard 2 tanks and British Challengers. The armored capability adds a powerful ground component to Ukrainian troops who have already endured more than a year of war.
