EU Boosts Ammo Production and Sends Aid to Ukraine Amid Rising Tensions.

The European Union has agreed to a €2 billion artillery shell deal to meet Ukraine's demand for 350,000 units per month, while NATO officials have called for the alliance to shore up anti-tank munitions supplies and resupply lines. The EU ammunition plan hopes to see 1 million artillery shells delivered to Ukraine within the next 12 months, with member states also pledging to replenish their own national artillery shell stocks and increase weapons production. The Biden administration has also agreed to a new $350 million military support package for Ukraine, including the supply of HIMARS ammunition, 155mm artillery rounds, and HARMs.
